In this paper, wire electric discharge machining (WEDM) of Titanium alloy (Ti-4.5Al-2V) is studied. In WEDM, the prime objective in cutting operation is to achieve the highest possible cutting speed along with desirable surface finish without sacrificing productivity. It is evident that a high material removal rate and a very good surface finish can never be achieved simultaneously in WEDM. Sel...

honing is a process for finishing surfaces to obtain smooth surface. this process is used for finalpolish of inner parts such as engines cylinders. optimizing this process has always been a bigchallenge for mass production of cylinder blocks of internal combustion engines. honing processhas some variable parameters, thus to get their optimum rates the automobile cylinders were tested.in this re...

cauliflower-like nanostructure of cadmium oxide was synthesized by utilizing mechanochemical reaction followed calcination procedure for the first time. the design of experiment (doe) by taguchi method was used to study influence of the chosen factors and to consider optimum conditions of the experiments. the temperature of calcining, the duration of milling, the duration of calcining and react...

Chatter vibrations, occurring during cutting process, cause vibration between the cutting tool and workpiece, which deteriorates surface roughness and reduces tool life. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of cutting parameters and tool construction on surface roughness and vibration in turning of aluminum alloy AA2024. A new design of cutting tool is proposed, which is fi...

In this study, a multi objective optimization for end milling of Al 6061 alloy has been presented to provide better surface quality and higher Material Removal Rate (MRR). The input parameters considered for the analysis are spindle speed, depth of cut and feed. The experiments were planned as per Taguchis design of experiment, with L27 orthogonal array. The Grey Relational Analysis (GRA) has b...

Resistance spot welding (RSW) has been used widely to join sheet metals. It has been a challenge to get required weld quality in spot welding of dissimilar thickness materials. Weld parameters are not generally available in standards for thickness beyond 4mm. This paper presents the welding process design and parameter optimization of RSW used in joining of low carbon steel sheet of thickness 0...

perlite or pearl stone is a natural glass which has formed by rapid cooling of viscous lava or magma. perlite is mainly composed of silica, aluminum, potassium and sodium. in this experiment, perlite was used as a low-cost source of si and al to synthesis of sodalite zeolite using the alkaline hydrothermal treatment. a statistical taguchi design of experiments was employed to evaluate the effec...

This paper presents the multiple response optimization of end milling parameter using grey based taguchi method. Experiments were designed and conducted based on L27 orthogonal array design The milling parameter were spindle speed, depth of cut, feed rate and pressurized coolant jet and the response was surface roughness. EN31, high carbon alloy steel which achieves a high degree of hardness an...
