Α Parameter Design in Turning of Copper Alloy

Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2009, Vol 10, Issue 27

Abstract

An optimization of the cutting parameters during turning of a copper alloy (GC-CuSn12) using the Taguchi design is attempted. Test specimens in the form of near-to-net-shape bars and a titanium nitride coated cemented carbide (T30) cutting tool were used. The independent variables considered were the cutting speed, feed rate, cutting depth and tool nose radius. An orthogonal matrix experiment (L9(34)) was conducted and the arithmetic mean roughness was measured and optimised according to the process parameters using an analysis of means and an analysis of variances. Finally, an additive model was applied on the experimental results and a verification experiment, using the best combination of parameters, was carried out in order to compare the actual and the predicted values.
