Abstract As one of the important functional components in optical diagnosis system, processing accuracy monocrystalline silicon cylindrical mirror directly affects overall performance entire experimental device. In order to obtain high-precision elements, coordinate transfer function models diamond wheel surface parallel grinding process were established, and forming scheme was proposed based o...

Turning of hardened steels using a single point cutting tool has replaced the cylindrical grinding now as it offers attractive benefits in terms of lower equipment costs, shorter set up time, fewer process setups, higher material removal rate, better surface quality and elimination of cutting fluids compared to cylindrical grinding. In order to obtain desired surface quality by machining, pr...

The present investigation proposes a hybrid technique: Taguchi method, response surface methodology (RSM) and genetic algorithm (GA), to analyze, model and predict vibration and surface roughness in traverse cut cylindrical grinding of aluminum alloy. Experiments have been conducted as per L9 orthogonal array of Taguchi methodology using several levels of the grinding parameters. Analysis of va...

A mathematical model of the surface roughness has been developed by using response surface methodology (RSM) in grinding of AISI D2 cold work tool steels. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to check the validity of the model. Low and high value for work speed and feed rate are decided from design of experiment. The influences of all machining parameters on surface roughness have been analyze...
