چکیده
In this paper, an attempt has been made to experimental investigation the machinability of aluminum metal matrix composite (LM13/SiC/15p) during continuous turning of composite rods using carbide inserts. Base matrix material is Aluminium LM13 reinforced with 15 % weight by volume of Silicon carbide particles of mean diameter 20 μm to 40 μm is used. The main focus of investigation is to determine surface roughness. Experiments were conducted in the CNC lathe by using carbide insert at various cutting conditions and parameters such as cutting speed, feed and depth of cut and surface roughness was found at different levels. The effect of machining parameters, e.g. cutting speed and depth of cut on the surface roughness investigated during experimentation.
