The effects of cutting tool coating material and cutting speed on cutting forces and surface roughness were investigated by Taguchi experimental design. Main cutting force, Fz is considered as a criterion. The effects of machining parameters were investigated using Taguchi L18 orthogonal array. Optimal cutting conditions were determined using the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio which is calculated ...

In the process of turning, pointing at the uncertain phenomenon of cutting which is caused by the disturbance of random factors, for determining the uncertain scope of cutting force, the integrated symmetric fuzzy number and the finite element method (FEM) are used in the prediction of cutting force. The method used symmetric fuzzy number to establish fuzzy function between cutting force and th...

Dynamic MRR (material removal rate) modeling is constructed and optimum solution through Calculus of Variations in maximize the machining profit of an individual cutting tool under fixed tool life is introduced. The mathematical model is formulated by reverse experiments on an ECOCA PC-3807 CNC lathe, and the electronic circuit is developed using linear regression technique for virtual machinin...

17-4PH stainless steel is a martensitic precipitation hardening stainless steel that provides an outstanding combination of high strength, good corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties, good toughness in both base metal and welds, and short time, low-temperature heat treatments that minimize warpage and scaling. This valuable alloy is widely used in the aerospace, nuclear, chemical, pet...

It is very important to use reliable and inexpensive sensors to obtain useful information about manufacturing processing, such as cutting force, for monitoring automated machining. In this paper, the feed cutting force is measured using an inexpensive current sensor installed on the a.c. servo motor of a CNC turning centre. The factors that affect a feed drive system are analysed in detail, and...

in this research, numerical simulation of a symmetric impact of a 2-d wedge, considering dynamic equations in two-phase flow is taken into account. the two-phase flow around the wedge is solved based on finite volume method and volume of fluid (vof) scheme. the dynamic mesh model is used to simulate dynamic motion of the wedge, thereby the effects of different dynamic meshes in both structured ...

This study investigated the machinability of experimental Ti-Ag alloys (5, 10, 20, and 30 mass% Ag) as a new dental titanium alloy candidate for CAD/CAM use. The alloys were slotted with a vertical milling machine and carbide square end mills under two cutting conditions. Machinability was evaluated through cutting force using a three-component force transducer fixed on the table of the milling...
