OPTIMIZATION OF THE FACE MILLING PROCESS SELECTION PARAMETER USING DESIRABILITY TECHNIQUE FOR AL-SIC COMPOSITES
Keywords:
Face milling, Fuzzy logic, Optimization, Al-SiC CompositeAbstract
Recently machining of composites was received great attention in industry. This is due to its wide spread application in aerospace, automobile, marine and also in sporting goods. In this research, the surface roughness, flank wear, build-up-edge and chip packing ratio of Al-SiC composites on face milling was investigated. Desirability technique and Design-expert software was used to establish the design matrix and to analyze the experimental data. The relationship between the face milling parameters like Percentage volume of Si-Cp, Speed, Feed, and Depth of cut with four responses such as Surface Roughness, Flank wear, Built up edge and Chip packing ratio were established.
