This article presents the influence of machining conditions on typical process performance indicators, namely cutting force, specific cutting energy, cutting temperature, tool wear, and fine dust emission during dry milling of CFRPs. The main goal is to determine the machining process window for obtaining quality parts with acceptable tool performance and limited dust emission. For achieving this, the cutting temperature was examined using analytical and empirical models, and systematic cutting experiments were conducted to assess the reliability of the theoretical predictions. A full factorial design was used for the experimental design. The experiments were conducted on a CNC milling machine with cutting speeds of 10,000, 15,000, and 20,000 rpm and feed rates of 2, 4, and 6 µm/tooth. Based on the results, it was ascertained that spindle speed significantly affects the cutting temperature and fine particle emission while cutting force, specific cutting energy, and tool wear are influenced by the feed rate. The optimal conditions for cutting force and tool wear were observed at a cutting speed of 10,000 rpm. The cutting temperature did not exceed the glass transition temperature for the cutting speeds tested and feed rates used. The fine particles emitted ranged from 0.5 to 10 µm aerodynamic diameters with a maximum concentration of 2776.6 particles for those of 0.5 µm diameters. Finally, results of the experimental optimization are presented, and the model is validated. The results obtained may be used to better understand specific phenomena associated with the milling of CFRPs and provide the means to select effective milling parameters to improve the technology and economics of the process.

Titanium Alloy Ti6al4v

Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V has poor machinability, which leads to high unit cutting force and cutting temperature, rapid tool failure. In this study, the effect of the cutting speed, feed rate and cooling condition on cutting force and cutting temperature is critically analysed by turning experiment. At the same time, the relationship is established among tool wear, cutting force and cutting temperature. This investigation has shown that cutting speed is the decisive factor which increasing cutting force and cutting temperature. In the process of turning, tool wear results in high amounts of heat and mechanical stress, which leads to serious tool wear. The Minimal Quantity Lubrication reduces the frictional condition at the chip-tool, decreases cutting force and cutting temperature, and delays the tool failure.

Abstract. Productivity and economy are key elements of any sustainable manufacturing system. While productivity is associated to quantity and quality, economy focuses on energy efficient processes achieving an overall high output to input ratio. Machining of hard-to-cut materials has always posed a challenge due to increased tool wear and energy loss. Cryogenics have emerged as an effective means to improve sustainability in the recent past. In the present research the use of cooling conditions has been investigated as an input variable to analyze its effect on tool wear, specific cutting energy and surface roughness in combination with other input machining parameters of feed rate, cutting speed and depth of cut. Experimental design was based on Taguchi design of experiment. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was carried out to ascertain the contribution ratio of each input. Results showed the positive effect of coolant usage, particularly cryogenic, on process responses. Tool wear was improved by 33 % whereas specific cutting energy and surface roughness were improved by 10 % and 9 % respectively by adapting the optimum machining conditions.

Metal matrix composites, due to their excellent properties of high specific strength, fracture resistance, and corrosion resistance, are highly sought after over their nonferrous alloys, but these materials also present difficulty in machining. Excessive tool wear and high tooling costs of diamond tools make the cost associated with machining of these composites very high. This paper is concerned with the machining of high volume fraction long-fiber metal matrix composites (MMCs), which has seldom been studied. The composite material considered for this study is an Al–2% Cu aluminum matrix composite reinforced with 62% by volume fraction alumina fibers (Al–2% Cu/Al2O3). Laser-assisted machining (LAM) is utilized to improve the tool life and the material removal rate while minimizing the subsurface damage. The effectiveness of the laser-assisted machining process is studied by measuring the cutting forces, specific cutting energy, surface roughness, subsurface damage, and tool wear under various material removal temperatures. A multiphase finite element model is developed in ABAQUS/STANDARD to assist in the selection of cutting parameters such as tool rake angle, cutting speed, and material removal temperature. The multiphase model is also successful in predicting the damage depth on machining. The optimum material removal temperature is established as 300°C at a cutting speed of 30 m/min. LAM provides a 65% reduction in the surface roughness, specific cutting energy, tool wear rate, and minimum subsurface damage over conventional machining using the same cutting conditions.

This paper investigates numerical and experimental study of end milling of titanium alloy Ti–6% Al–4% V using carbide insert based cutting tool. The experiments were carried out under dry cutting conditions. The cutting speeds selected for the experiments are 20,30,40,50 mmin–1. The feed rates used in the experiment were 0.02, 0.04, 0.06 and 0.08 mmrev–1, while depth of cut is kept constant at 1.0 mm. For conducting the experiments single insert based cutting tool is based. For a range of cutting speeds and feeds measurements of cutting force, surface roughness and cutting temperature have been recorded. From the experimental study it can be seen that cutting speed has the significant effect on temperature when compared to feed/tooth. Further it is also found that cutting speed of 30 m min−1 and feed rate of 0.02 mm rev−1 could be used for machining Ti alloy. Moreover the experimental and numerical cutting force values are compared.

Modern technologies for continuous carbonization of Eucalyptus sp. require special care in wood cutting procedures. Choosing the right tool, cutting speeds and feed rates is important to manage time and energy consumption, both of which being critical factors in optimizing production. The objective of this work is to examine the influence of machining parameters on the specific cutting energy consumption of Eucalyptus sp. stands MN 463 and VM 01, owned by V&M Florestal. Tests were performed at the Wood Machining Laboratory of the Federal University of Lavras (DCF/UFLA). Moist logs 1.70m in length were used. The experiment was set up using a 3 x 3 x 4 x 2 factorial design (cutting speed x feed rate x number of teeth x tree stand). Results were subjected to analysis of variance and means were compared by the Tukey test at the 5% significance level. Greater cutting speeds, lower feed rates and the 40 teeth circular saw consumed more specific energy. Stand MN 463 consumed more specific energy. The combination of cutting speed 46 m.s-1, feed rate 17 m.min-1 and 24 teeth circular saw produced better specific energy consumption results for stand MN 463. As for stand VM 01, the combination of cutting speed 46 m.s-1, feed rate 17 m.min-1 and 20 teeth circular saw resulted in lower specific energy consumption.

In pocketing operation for mold and die, the variation of tool engagement angle causes variation in the cutting force and also cutting temperature. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of tool engagement on cutting temperature when using the contour in tool path strategy for different cutting speeds. Cutting speeds of 150, 200 and 250m/min, feedrate from 0.05, 0.1, 0.15 mm/tooth and depths of cut of 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2 mm were applied for the cutting process. The result shows that by increasing cutting speed, the cutting temperature would rise. Varying the tool engagement also varied the cutting temperature. This can be seen clearly when the tool makes a 90oturn and along the corner region. Along the corner, the engagement angle varies accordingly with the radial depth of cut.

The aim of this work was to study the behavior of sugarcane bagasse submitted to cutting, as a function of its moisture content, angle of the blade edge and cutting speed. The specific cutting energy and peak cutting force were measured using an experimental facility developed for this series of experiments. An analysis of the results of the full factorial experimental design using a statistical analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed. The response surfaces and empirical models for the specific cutting energy and peak cutting force were obtained using statistical analysis system software. Low angle of the blade edge and low moisture content are, in this order, the most important experimental factors in determining a low specific cutting energy and a low peak cutting force respectively. The best cutting conditions are achieved for an angle of blade edge of 20.8° and a moisture content of 10% w. b. The results of this work could contribute to the optimal design of sugarcane bagasse pre-treatment systems.

Finding sustainable ways of machining exotic materials is gaining more and more importance in the manufacturing industry. Application of advanced measuring instruments for quantifying performance measures is a crucial requirement for making machining processes viable. The presented work aims to ameliorate machining of a high-strength β-titanium alloy using information from measurements of key responses, such as cutting energy consumption, tool deflection, and tool damage. Acoustic emission data and tool’s acceleration data are utilized to work out the magnitudes of energy consumed and deflection undergone by the tool, respectively. The article focuses on quantifying the effects of tool’s inertia, strength of work material, and two cutting parameters on the aforementioned responses. A total of 54 continuous cutting experiments are performed in which a fixed volume of material per experimental run is removed. Tool deflection method helped to determine the significant effects of varying tool inertia, work material strength, and cutting speed on the machining process. Likewise, acoustic emission method highlighted the strong effects of material strength and cutting speed caused on the cutting energy consumption. The effect of feed rate is found to be significant regarding tool wear only. Finally, the tool wear data are tested for correlation against the corresponding data sets of the other two responses. It is found that both tool deflection and cutting energy possess strong uphill relationships with tool wear.

FGH95 is one kind of high-strength, thermal-resistant nickel-based superalloys fabricated by powder metallurgy (PM). It plays an increasingly important role in the development and manufacture of turbine discs. Due to the extreme toughness and work hardening characteristics of this kind of superalloy, the problem of machining FGH95 is one of ever-increasing magnitudes. This paper investigates the influence of cutting parameters on the cutting force, cutting temperature and tool wear during the end milling of PM nickel-based superalloy FGH95. The empirical formula for cutting force and cutting temperature of FGH95 are given out. Experimental results show that the cutting speed among milling parameters has the greatest influence on cutting forces and cutting temperatures. It is shown that the major tool wear mechanisms are combination interactions of abrasive wear, adhesion wear, micro-breakout and chipping.
