A soft computing system used to optimize deep drilling operations under high-speed conditions in the manufacture of steel components is presented. The input data includes cutting parameters and axial cutting force obtained from the power consumption of the feed motor of the milling centres. Two different coolant strategies are tested: traditional working fluid and Minimum Quantity Lubrication (...

In the new global economy, consumption has become a central issue for many fields of industries. This project work studied on the effectiveness of pulse duration of supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2) in machining performance in terms of cutting temperature, cutting force and surface roughness in turning AISI 1045 medium carbon steel by uncoated cemented carbide insert. Pulse mode reduces the ...

The surface finish was extensively studied in usual machining processes (turning, milling, and drilling). For these processes, the surface finish is strongly influenced by the cutting feed and the tool nose radius. However, a basic understanding of tool/surface finish interaction and residual stress generation has been lacking. This paper aims to investigate the surface finish and residual stre...

This paper presents a high performance triaxial cutting force sensor with excellent accuracy, favorable natural frequency and acceptable cross-interference for high speed turning process. Octagonal ring is selected as sensitive element of the designed sensor, which is drawn inspiration from ring theory. A novel structure of two mutual-perpendicular octagonal rings is proposed and three Wheatsto...

Tool wear condition monitoring has the potential to play a critical role in ensuring the dimensional accuracy of the workpiece and prevention of damage to cutting equipment. It could also help in automating cutting processes. In this paper, the feed cutting force estimated with the aid of an inexpensive current sensor installed on the ac servomotor of a computerized numerical control turning ce...

In the present work Taguchi method is used to optimize cutting parameters during dry turning of AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel with AlTiCrN coated tool. The coating was deposited on fine-grained K-grade (ISO K-20) cemented carbide cutting insert using physical vapor deposition (PVD) technique. The turning parameters evaluated are cutting speed of 200 and 260 m/min, feed rate of 0.20 and 0....

This paper presents a new model for the estimation of cutting forces in micromilling based on specific cutting pressure. The proposed model includes three parameters which allow to control the entry of the cutter in the workpiece and which consider also the errors in the radial position of the cutting edges of the tool. The presented model is orientated to adaptive control in the micromilling p...

Buckling analysis of thin cylindrical shells is very important due to their production process.  Usually longitudinal and transversal stiffeners are used to increase the buckling stiffness. In this paper, considering a thin cylindrical shell with longitudinal and transversal ribs subjected to axial force and lateral pressure, the influence of different aspect of axial force to lateral pressure ...

Cutting forces analysis is one of the most important means improving machining quality and productivity. In 3-axis milling, frequency domain cutting provides information which can be adopted for both predicting monitoring process. However, evaluation spectra requires application specific tools (i.e., Fourier’s Transform) to time representation same forces. This paper presents analytical formula...
