Optimization of Drilling Parameters on Surface Roughness of Al 1200-SiC Composites Using Taguchi Analysis
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 3
Abstract
In present study, the matrix material Al 1200 reinforced with various percentages (5% and 10%) of SiC particles. Stir casting method employed for producing AlSiC MMCs since it is simple and cheapest method used for producing Aluminium Matrix Composites (AMCs). Main purpose of this investigation is to study the effects of drilling parameters (Spindle Speed, Feed Rate and Depth of Cut) on Surface Roughness. Drilling carried out using CNC Vertical Machining Centre for varying drilling parameters. Surface roughness found out around drilled hole circumferences using surface roughness tester. Taguchi method and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) employed for finding optimal drilling parameters values on minimizing surface roughness and also to find out most effective drilling parameter on minimizing surface roughness. It was found that Depth of cut is the most effective parameter for 5% AlSiC MMC and Spindle speed is the most effective parameter for 10% AlSiC MMC.
