Abstract


In order to control the required surface quality, generally it is vital to have the choice of optimized cutting factors in various industrial machining operations. The trait of surface finish is a vital concern for most of the turned parts in an industry. The present research work is focused on the optimization of cutting process parameters (depth of cut, feed rate, spindle speed) in wet turning of High Carbon High Chromium Steel (2.2% C) having hardness 50+2 HRC. Therefore turning operations were performed on High Carbon High Chromium Steel by carbide P-30 cutting tool in wet condition and the combination of the optimal levels of the parameters was obtained. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and SN (Signal-to-Noise) ratio were implemented to analyze the performance characteristics in wet turning operation. The results of the analysis show that none of the factors was found to be significant. Taguchi method showed that spindle speed contributed the highest effect on the surface roughness followed by depth of cut and feed rate while turning High Carbon High Chromium Steel by carbide cutting tool in wet turning. The useful results obtained by this research can be the eye openers for other similar type of future research works.
