In the present work Taguchi method is used to optimize cutting parameters during dry turning of AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel with AlTiCrN coated tool. The coating was deposited on fine-grained K-grade (ISO K-20) cemented carbide cutting insert using physical vapor deposition (PVD) technique. The turning parameters evaluated are cutting speed of 200 and 260 m/min, feed rate of 0.20 and 0....

High speed machining of hardened steels for manufacturing dies and molds offers various advantages, but the productivity often limited by mainly tool life. This study investigates the influence of edge preparation in cubic boron nitrite (CBN) cutting tools on process parameters and tool performance by utilizing practical finite element (FE) simulations and high speed orthogonal cutting tests. T...

the aim of present study is to investigate the kinematics of tool-workpiece’s relative movement in conventional and ultrasonic-vibration assisted turning (uat). the kinematic analysis of uat shows that the movement of cutting tool edge relative to the workpiece resulted from the cutting speed, feed speed and tool’s vibration affects the lateral machined surface of workepiece and leaves a repeat...

Observations are made regarding the influence of cutting speed and friction on cutting force by way of finite element modeling. Simulations are validated by comparison of cutting forces and chip morphologies for the Al6061-T6. Analysis of cutting forces over a wide range of cutting conditions suggests an important role of the secondary shear zone in the decrease of cutting force as a function o...

An intelligent E-Manufacturing system was developed in this paper. The high speed machining center was rebuilt using 3D CAD system. The moving table (X axis), span column (Y axis), spindle (Z axis) and the tool changing system were modeled precisely. The high speed cutting (HSC) experiments of AL 6061 were carried to obtain the cutting forces and surface roughness for different cutting conditio...

Nowadays, application of cermet coatings deposited by High-Velocity Oxygen-Fuel (HVOF) has received considerable attention in a variety of industries. Carbide coatings have high surface roughness, so it is essential to grind the coated surface. The present investigation studied the effect of simultaneous changes in the grinding parameters including the depth of cut, feed rate and cutting sp...

Nowadays the surface texturing has been widely recognized as a usable capability to improve the tribological systems. In this paper, ultrasonic assisted turning (UAT) isperformed to create the micro textures on the flat faces. Micro surface texturing ismade on the Al7075-T6 by the UAT in the face turning process. Then, the influences of cutting speed feed, vibration direction and vibration ampl...

Lithium-ion batteries are the energy storage medium of choice for myriad applications. The enormous demand worldwide is reaching new heights, motivating development lower cost, faster production methods. With all these efforts to economic efficiency, quality manufactured must remain at highest level, a goal that can only be achieved if individual components meet their respective specifications....
