This study focuses on the effect of cutting parameters on the tool wear in a CNC end milling operation. Major factors which influence the tool wear are spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut. Conventionally constant feed rate is used. In this work a concept of progressive feed rate is introduced. AISI 1045 steel has been chosen as it is widely used in manufacturing. Design of Experiments (DOE) technique was adopted to conduct the experiments. Experiments were conducted for both the existing and the proposed feed rate method and the tool wear was compared. A statistical model was developed using Design Expert software. The predicted values were compared with the experimental values and were found to be in close agreement. The model adequacy was checked using ANOVA technique.

Coolants dissipate the heat generated during machining and hence improve productivity, machinability, etc. However, the use of cutting fluids in machining operations may seriously degrade the quality of environment. So, in recent years researchers have started machining with the use of solid lubricants with the aim of improving machining performance and overcome some of the limitations that arise with the use of cutting fluids or while machining dry. This paper deals with an investigation on using graphite as a solid lubricant to reduce the heat generated at the milling zone for improving the surface roughness of the machined AISI 1045 steel. An experimental setup has been developed to maintain constant flow rate of graphite powder continuously on to the workpiece and tool interface zone. The experimental studies have been conducted to see the effect of tool geometry (radial rake angle and nose radius) and cutting conditions (cutting speed and feed rate) on the machining response such as surface finish in solid lubricant assisted machining using four fluted solid TiAlN coated carbide cutters. Results indicate that there is a considerable improvement in the performance of milling AISI 1045 steel using graphite as a solid lubricant when compared with machining with cutting fluids. An attempt has also been made to select optimum tool geometry and cutting conditions in end milling with graphite as a solid lubricant by using the prediction model obtained from these experimental results.

The cutting fluids applied to the machining processes by the MQL process aim to reduce the machining temperatures and tool wear as well as improve the surface and dimensional finishing of the parts. To increase the efficiency of these fluids, graphene lubricating platelets are added. This work investigated the performance of three different cutting fluids with graphene sheets added and applied via MQL, considering the tool life, wear, and wear mechanisms acting on TiAlN-coated cemented carbide cutting tools in the end milling of AISI 1045 steel. We evaluated two vegetable- (MQL15 and LB1000) and one mineral-based (MQL14) neat oils and the same fluids with the addition of 0.05 and 0.1%wt graphene nanoplatelets. Dry cuts were also performed and investigated for comparison. The experiments were conducted under fixed cutting conditions (vc = 250 m/min, fz = 0.14 mm/tooth, ap = 1 mm, and ae = 20 mm). The end-of-tool-life criterion followed the guidelines of ISO 8688-1 (1989). To analyze the results, ANOVA and Tukey’s test were applied. The addition of graphene sheets in the vegetable-based cutting fluids effectively increased the lubricating properties, partially reducing the wear mechanisms acting on the tools. In addition, there was a predominance of thermal fatigue cracks and mechanical cracks as well as adhesive and abrasive wear mechanisms on the tools used in the cutting with the MQL15 and MQL14 fluids, indicating greater cyclical fluctuations in temperature and surface stresses.

The steel milling AISI 1045 has been gaining prominence in industry in recent years as it allows machined parts to be obtained with low-cost inserts. However, to ensure the final product quality, it is important that the milling for machining procedure be well planned in order to the cutters have their wear minimized in the process, as well as a considerable productivity rate with a zero occurrence of reworked parts or scraps. Thus, this paper presents a study about the quality of the machined surface on the end milling process of AISI 1045 steel using titanium nitride (TiN) coated carbide inserts, optimized for a combined design, using Design of Experiments (DOE). Statistical Process Control (SPC) is applied to analyze the process variations using X-bar and R control charts. The objective of this study is to identify the optimal combination of the input setup such as cutting speed (Vc), feed per tooth (fZ), work penetration (ae) and machining depth (ap) that is capable of minimize the process variation. The response measured is the roughness parameter Ra, observed under the influence of cutting fluid, tool wear, concentration and flow of the cutting fluid as noise. The obtained result was the stability of the Ra roughness for the AISI 1045 steel in end milling process, which is not influenced by noise variables due to Robust Parameter Design used in this study

The objective of the present work is to simulate surface roughness in Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machine by Fuzzy Modeling of AISI 1045 Steel. To develop the fuzzy model; cutting depth, feed rate and speed are taken as input process parameters. The predicted results are compared with reliable set of experimental data for the validation of fuzzy model. Based upon reliable set of experimental data by Response Surface Methodology twenty fuzzy controlled rules using triangular membership function are constructed. By intelligent model based design and control of CNC process parameters, we can enhance the product quality, decrease the product cost and maintain the competitive position of steel.

AbstractQuench hardening aims at the microstructural transformation of steels in order to improve hardness and mechanical strength. The aim phase is, in most cases, the martensite. It is necessary to heat the material until it obtains its austenitization and quenching by immersion in a fluid. Currently, it is common to use watery polymeric solutions in this procedure. These fluids, which are the mixture of polymers in water, vary their thermal exchange capacity depending on the concentrations applied. The increase in concentration minimizes the removal of heat from the part, reducing the formation capacity of martensite, and developing a lower hardness and strong steel. In this work, microstructural characteristics and properties of AISI 1045 steel quenched in solutions based on polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in 10, 15, 20, and 25% concentration were evaluated. The microstructural characterization quantified the percentage of the phases in each concentration, demonstrating a reduction of martensite as the concentrations were high. The investigation of the samples by x-ray diffraction confirmed the absence of austenite retained in the material. Furthermore, a microhardness scale between the core and the surface was constructed, in which a reduction gradient of the indices of this property towards the core of the sample was evidenced.
