Nowadays the surface texturing has been widely recognized as a usable capability to improve the tribological systems. In this paper, ultrasonic assisted turning (UAT) isperformed to create the micro textures on the flat faces. Micro surface texturing ismade on the Al7075-T6 by the UAT in the face turning process. Then, the influences of cutting speed feed, vibration direction and vibration ampl...

The paper presents results of an analysis of acoustic emission (AE) signals obtained during laser cutting of a steel plate, which is frequently used in the production of automotive body components. The acoustic emission in the plate, which is produced by various physical phenomena occurring during the laser cutting process, was measured with contact PZT sensors. During the laser cutting process...

The process of material cutting and fracture by high velocity water jets is a complex series of phenomena which may involve compression, tension, shear, erosion, wears, cracking, wave propagation, and cavitations damage. This makes the exact analysis of the jet cutting process to be very complicated. The problem of water jet coal cutting is a multiresponse problem. There are two output variable...

In nano/micro cutting process, the surface quality is heavily dependent on all the dynamic factors in machining including those from the material, tooling, cutting parameters, servo accuracy, mechanical structure deformation, and non-linear factors as well. The machined surfaces are generated based on the tool profile and the real tool path combining with the various external and internal distu...

Abrasive Water Jet (AWJ); which may be accepted as a relatively new and nature-friendly technology for the industry, can simply be defined as the technological process that uses a transformation of the high-pressure jet to the high-speed waterjet as a tool for cutting substance, specially materials. As this technology has the ability of cutting some multicomponent materials in all directions, w...

One of the most significant and effective criteria in the process of cutting dimensional rocks using the gang saw is the maximum energy consumption rate of the machine, and its accurate prediction and estimation can help designers and owners of this industry to achieve an optimal and economic process. In the present research work, it is attempted to study and provide models for predicting the m...

the use of titanium and its alloys has increased in various industries recently, because of their superior properties of these alloys. titanium alloys are generally classified as difficult to machine materials because of their thermo-mechanical properties such as high strength-to-weight ratio and low thermal conductivity. laser assisted machining (lam) improves the machinability of high strengt...

This research explores the automated process adjustments of chip cutting operations by using neural network and statistical approaches in a computer-aided vision system. Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC), owing to their excellent electronic characteristics, are applied in the design of high-density PC boards. The excellences of MLCCs are accomplished through rigorous controlling of every pro...

Reaming is a common finishing process for improving the drilled holes surface quality. Choosing an appropriate finishing method in drilling process has a significant effect on the surface quality of holes and in decreasing the process total cost and time. In this study, four similar holes were drilled on the AISI 4340 workpiece with different two pair feed rates. The drilling process was perfor...
