Many manufacturing industries involve machining operations. In metal cutting the turning process is one of the most fundamental cutting processes used. Surface finish and dimensional tolerance, are used to determine and evaluate the quality of a product, and are major quality attributes of a turned product. In this paper experimental work has been carried out for the optimization of input param...

In the present work an attempt is made to select the combination of optimum cutting parameters which will result in better surface finish. Machining with optimum cutting parameters will result in minimum machining time and hence increasing the productivity. Four parameters viz. spindle speed, feed, depth of cut and length to diameter (L/D) ratio of boring bar has been taken as control factors. ...

A high strength nickel chromium alloy (50Cr-50Ni-Nb alloy), commonly referred to as IN-657, is specifically used for components in furnaces which are fired by low grade fuel oils containing high levels of vanadium, sodium and sulphur. The purpose of this study is to experimentally investigatethe effect of machining parameters on machinability in turning of Inconel 657. The considered parameters...

High cost and low efficiency problem has been bothering NC teaching.To lower the cost of practical teaching of higher speed numerical control manufacturing along with improvement in processing efficiency, a multi-objective scheme for optimization of process parameters has been developed here. Various constraint conditions were set and a complex algorithm was employed for optimization. To achiev...

crops and agricultural products are subject to natural loading during growth. different mechanical forces are also exerted on them during harvest. one product, sugar cane, experiences large shear forces are during harvest. an examination of the crop properties and machine parameters of sugar cane are necessary to develop appropriate cutting tools and the optimization and design of harvesting ma...

In a time when modern production has become exposed to strict market demands, in terms of increasing quality, shortening the processing time and reducing the cost of the final product, laser processing has become a necessity in almost all manufacturing industries. Each laser manufacturer, including the Swiss company Bystronic, gives recommended cutting parameters for certain types of materials....

This paper deals with the study of machinability of GFRP composite tubes of different fiber orientation angle vary from 30 to 90. Machining studies were carried out on an all geared lathe using three different cutting tools: namely Carbide (K-20), Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) and Poly-Crystalline Diamond (PCD). Experiments were conducted based on the established Taguchi’s Design of Experiments (DO...

Optimization of cutting parameters is important to achieve high quality in the machining process, especially where more complex multiple performance optimizations are required. The present investigation focuses on the multiple performance optimizations of machining characteristics of unidirectional glass fiber reinforced plastic (UD-GFRP) composites. The cutting parameters used for the experime...

This paper discusses the selection of tools and cutting parameters in milling operations. To carry out this research, an expert system has been developed based on numerical methods of performance evaluation. The knowledge base is given by limitations in process variables, which let us to define the allowable cutting parameter space. The mentioned limitations are instabilities due to tool-work-p...
