vibration cutting (vc), elliptical vibration cutting (evc) and ordinary cutting (oc) of in738 work-pieces have been experimentally investigated in the present research. the experiments were carried out by using single crystal diamond tool and ultra-precision cnc lathe. vibration frequency is 36.16khz and the amplitude is . the influence of various cutting parameters including cutting speed, fee...

The investigation was conducted on wet and dry seasons of Ethiopia during the year 2012/2013 at Wondo Genet Agricultural Research Center Nursery site. Four levels of cutting size and three levels of cutting positions were arranged in randomized complete block design with three replications. Data on seedling height, branch number/seedling, root number/seedling, root weigh/seedling, root length/s...

Predicting the main cutting force during turning is of great importance as it helps in setting the appropriate cutting parameters before machining starts.Again, optimization of cutting parameters is one of the most important elements in any process planning of metal parts as economy of machining operation plays a key role in gaining competitive advantage. This paper presents an experimental stu...

the new non-conventional cutting process by the use of thermal shock is a convenient procedure for cutting the brittle materials such as glasses and ceramics. this method is based on the application of localized thermal shock to brittle materials by the use of hot air jet, which induces thermal stresses at the tip of an existed pre-crack. due to the thermo-elastic behavior of materials, the pre...

Vermicular graphite cast iron, which is widely used in the automotive industry because of outstanding strenght properties. But, there are many problem with regard to machinability of this material. In this study, optimum cutting parameters were studied in order to improve machinability of vermicular graphite cast iron. Experiment parameters which is appropriate for ISO 3685 was selected. Depend...

In this study, two different vegetable based cutting fluids developed from refined canola and sunflower oil and a commercial type semi-synthetic cutting fluid were carried out to determine optimum conditions for tool wear and forces during milling of AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel. Taguchi L9 (3) orthogonal array was used for the experiment plan. Cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and ...

Determination of optimal conditions of machining parameters is important to reduce the production cost and achieve the desired surface quality. This paper investigates the influence of cutting parameters on surface roughness and natural frequency in turning of aluminum alloy AA2024. The experiments were performed at the lathe machine using two different cutting tools made of AISI 5140 and carbi...

due to the importance of weed control and the limitations of mechanical methods in some places, in this research the water jet cutting for weed control was investigated. the cutting tests were performed on camel thorn weed in shahid bahonar university of kerman. the water jet pressure of 90 bars was achieved with the aid of a suitable pump. the cutting time was studied in a completely randomize...

A properly designed machining procedure can significantly affect the efficiency of the production lines. To minimize the cost of machining process as well as increasing the quality of products, cutting parameters must permit the reduction of cutting time and cost to the lowest possible levels. To achieve this, cutting parameters must be kept in the optimal range. This is a non-linear optimizati...
