Abstract

Now a days, main challenges to metal cutting industries are productivity and quality of product or component. The machining parameter of any machining process highly affects the quality of product. Surface roughness is a key indicator to quality of product or component in turning process. In this paper, the effect of machining parameter on surface roughness and roundness in turning of AISI 4340 steel is investigated with Response Surface Methodology. This work analyse the effect of cutting parameters on the roundness of cylindrical parts for AISI 4330 steel in the turning operation. An experimental design by Response Surface Methodology done in this work, the control variables were: cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cutting. Metal cutting experiments and statistical tests demonstrate that the Cutting Speed significantly affects the roundness of cylindrical part. Also, the relations between the Cutting Speed –Feed Rate and Cutting Speed –Depth of Cutting affect the roundness of work piece too. Additionally, the experimental design is optimized to minimize the effect of roundness. Finally, further research directions are presented.
