Surface Roughness Investigation of a Reinforced Polymer Composite

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

Abstract

The influence of cutting speed and feed rate during turning on the surface roughness of a glass fiber polymer composite (Ertalon 66 GF-30) was experimentally investigated. Test specimens in the form of bars and a P20 cemented carbide cutting tool were used while the cutting depth was kept constant during the experiment. Parameter design using an orthogonal matrix experiment was conducted and the experimental results were analysed using an ANOM and an ANOVA analysis approach. Based on the statistical analysis of the experimental results it was found that the arithmetic mean roughness depends mainly on the feed rate parameter.
