Abstract


Today’s extremely challenging manufacturing scenario puts a clear impetus on developing newer materials and efficient production methods to process them in order to survive and sustain, which also provides immense research opportunities to constantly upgrade and optimize existing processes. The current study was started with an objective of optimizing cutting parameters in turning operation of Al2O3 reinforced 6061 Aluminum alloy composite (PAMC) such as speed, feed, depth of cut and type of inserts by Taguchi method (robust design) along with resultant cutting force and MRR as two responses of the turning process. The experimental design was done by considering Taguchi L9 array having four parameters at three levels was carried out on a conventional Hi-Tech Lathe. Finally, the work was concluded with optimal parameters for the maximum MRR along with minimum resultant cutting force.
