The advancement of cast iron alloy properties has enabled increased efficiency in automotive vehicles. Nevertheless, this progress is accompanied by a growing demand for more durable tools with higher resistance to successfully execute cutting operations. This work conducts an investigation the machinability different high-strength alloys. parameter used was machining time determined maximum fl...

This paper discusses the fabrication of microfluidic channels using micro end milling and micro electrical discharge (ED) milling on metals and polymers. The width of the microchannels fabricated by micro end milling was 100-800 μm with 1-2 aspect ratio. The average surface roughness values were 100-200 nm and 80-120 nm on metals and polymers respectively. The end milling was found to form more...

For time and cost saving reasons, the lowest surface roughness possible is sought in milling operations. High speed milling is recommended in order to minimise the amount of material to be removed in subsequent finishing operations, e.g. grinding, electrical discharge machining or manual polishing. Several roughness parameters are usually employed for the characterization of polished surfaces. ...

The deformation of aeronautical monolithic components due to CNC machining is a bottle-neck issue in the aviation industry. The residual stress releases and redistributes in the process of material removal, and the distortion of the monolithic component is generated. The traditional one-side machining method will produce oversize deformation. Based on the three-stage CNC machining method, the q...
