Surface roughness is the key aspect which could increase the application of float glass by enhancing the machined hole quality. Glass is extensively used in microfluidic devices, bio-medical parts and biosensors. The core objective of the research study is to optimize the best parametric combination to achieve the least amount of surface roughness. The three major parameters which are used for designed experimental study are spindle speed, ultrasonic amplitude and feed rate. The least value of surface roughness is noticed at spindle speed (5000 rpm), vibration amplitude (20 μ m) and feed rate (6 mm/min) which be adopted for increasing its functional application. Consequently, after optimizing the parameters, least value of surface roughness at hole internal region is revealed as 1.09 μm.

As one of the cost-effective machining methods for advanced ceramics, rotary ultrasonic machining (RUM) has attracted much attention and there exist numerous publications on the process. However, few investigations on tool wear in the RUM process have been reported. This paper, for the first time in literature, presents an experimental observation on tool wear in RUM of alumina. it presents and discusses the results on tool wear in RUM of alumina. It also discusses some practical implications of the findings from this study.

Tool wear and failure monitoring has raised quite a lot of interests among researchers and has consequently been studied in a number of research projects by a number of research organisations. However, few researchers monitored tool wear in rotary ultrasonic machining (RUM) using various sensors. This paper, for the first time in literature, presents an experimental monitoring on tool wear in RUM of silicon carbide (SiC) using accelerometer, force and acoustic emission sensors. A digital microscope was used to observe the actual tool wear during the experiment. After describing the experimental procedures, it presents and discusses the results on tool wear and acceleration signal, force signal and acoustic signal in RUM of SiC

This article presents the use of the rotary ultrasonic machining process for drilling holes in Ti6Al4V alloy which is regarded as a difficult-to-cut material due to its high-temperature strength and low thermal conductivity. This research presents an experimental investigation on the effect of the key rotary ultrasonic machining input parameters including ultrasonic power, spindle speed, feed rate, and the tool diameter on the main output responses including cutting force, hole cylindricity and overcut errors, and tool wear. No previous reports were found in literature to experimentally investigate the effect of the rotary ultrasonic machining parameters and the tool diameter on tool wear, surface integrity, and the accuracy of the drilled holes in Ti6Al4V alloy. The results showed that the rotary ultrasonic machining input parameters within the current ranges can significantly affect the quality of the drilled holes. Through proper selection of input parameters, holes could be drilled in Ti6Al4V alloy with smoothed surface morphology, low tool wear (0.7 mg) and very low cylindricity (2 µm) and overcut (120 µm) errors. Moreover, it was found that the selected level of any input parameter has the ability to significantly affect the influence of the other input parameters on the output responses.

Due to their unique properties, titanium alloys are attractive for some unique applications especially in the aerospace industry. However, it is very difficult to machine these materials cost-effectively. Although many conventional and non-conventional machining methods have been reported for machining them, no reports can be found in the literature on rotary ultrasonic machining of titanium alloys. This paper presents an experimental study on rotary ultrasonic machining of a titanium alloy. The tool wear, cutting force, and surface roughness when rotary ultrasonic machining of the titanium alloy have been investigated using different tool designs and machining conditions. The results are compared with those when machining the same material with diamond grinding.
