Surface roughness is the main indicator of technological performances of a component for electrical discharge machining (EDM). EDM process of manganese alloyed cold-work tool steel was modelled. In this paper we used the fuzzy logic (FL) and neural network (NN) to predict the effect of machining variables (discharge current and pulse duration) on the surface roughness of manganese alloyed cold-...

In order to improve efficiency of cutting process in production industry, development of new steel which has good machinablity is desired. The work material which has good surface roughness, easy breakable chip and small tool wear as the good machinablity is expected. And the free-machining steel was developed owning to adding elements which could make the machinablity better. Of all others, le...

–Friction stir welding is a solid state welding technology used for welding low melting point metals, such as Al, Mg and its alloys. Later welding was conducted on dissimilar metals which also produced a better defect free joint. Tool design and welding parameters contributes a major role for producing a better weld. Material flow and friction heat are the factors that the internal factor for t...

the plain carbon steel “ck45” has relatively well mechanical and metallurgical properties and low cost. the purpose of this research was the property evaluation of this steel on abrasive wear and impact for using in plows and other tillage tools. tillage tool should resist in abrasive wear and impact simultaneously. several heat treatments were done on specimens of this steel. a standard test d...

During machining of stainless steels at low cutting -speeds, workpiece material tends to adhere to the cutting tool at the tool-chip interface, forming built-up edge (BUE). BUE has a great importance in machining processes; it can significantly modify the phenomenon in the cutting zone, directly affecting the workpiece surface integrity, cutting tool forces, and chip formation. The American Iro...

Hard turning is the latest technology and is used to turn hard materials by using cutting tools like CBN and PCBN. Certain hard materials like titanium, Inconel and stainless steel are pronounced as difficult to cut materials. The superior cutting tools effectively machine such hard materials and produces desirable surface roughness with less tool wear. The present research was carried on hard ...

This paper presents the experimental results regarding acoustic emission signals measured during the injection molding of those standard test specimens commonly used for examining the shrinkage behaviour of various thermoplastic materials. In daily industrial production of different plastic products we often have to deal with various errors that practically occur on the mold primarily as a resu...

Formation of spikes prevents achievement of the better material removal rate (MRR) and surface finish while using plain NaNO3 aqueous electrolyte in electrochemical machining (ECM) of die tool steel. Hence this research work attempts to minimize the formation of spikes in the selected workpiece of high carbon high chromium die tool steel using copper nanoparticles suspended in NaNO3 aqueous ele...
