Quality and productivity play important role in today’s manufacturing market. Now a day’s due to very stiff and cut throat competitive market condition in manufacturing industries. The main objective of industries reveal with producing better quality product at minimum cost and increase productivity. CNC end milling is most vital and common operation use for produce machine part with desire surface quality and higher productivity with less time and cost constrain. To obtain main objective of company regards quality and productivity. In the present research project an attempt is made to understand the effect of machining parameters such as cutting speed (m/min), feed rate (mm/min),depth of cut (mm), four no. of cutting flute that are influences on responsive output parameters such as Surface Roughness and Tool Wear by using optimization philosophy. The effort to investigate optimal machining parameters (Speed, Feed and Depth of cut) and their contribution on producing better Surface quality and higher Productivity. INTRODUCTION Milling is the process of machining flat, curved, or irregular surfaces by feeding the work piece against a rotating cutter containing a number of cutting edges. The milling machine consists basically of a motor driven spindle, which mounts and revolves the milling cutter, and a reciprocating adjustable worktable, which mounts and feeds the work piece. Among several CNC industrial machining processes, milling is a fundamental machining operation. End milling and face Milling is the most common metal removal operation encountered. It is broadly used in a variety of manufacturing industries including the aerospace, automotive sectors, where quality is vital factor in the production of slots, pockets, precision moulds and dies [6]. Fig. 1.1 Milling Operation END MILLING OPERATION End milling is the most common metal removal operation encountered. It is widely used to mate with other part in die, aerospace, automotive, and machinery design as well as in manufacturing industries. The cutter called end mill has diameter less than the work piece width. Fig 1.2 End milling operation OBJECTIVE OF TOPIC To study the effect of Solid carbide tool on end milling of AISI 316 in dry machining. To compare the outcomes resulting from Solid carbide tools while milling of AISI 316. To decide the range of machining parameter (feed, speed, depth of cut) by which one can optimize the performance of AISI 316. To evaluate the effect of cutting conditions on Tool wear, surface roughness of solid carbide tools in end milling of AISI 316. To measure the Tool wear & Surface Roughness by tool maker’s microscope and surface roughness tester respectively. SCOPE OF TOPIC The scope of this research is focused on milling of AISI 316 using cemented carbide tools. The processes will be conducted under various independent variables which include cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut. At the end of the study the performance of each cutting tool will be compared by observed data while milling process on
