Analyze the Effect of Crater Cutting Tool Wear Modeling in the Machining of Aluminium Composite

Abstract

The present investigation is used to analyze the effect of crater wear modeling in the machining of aluminium composite. Response surface methodology (RSM) is one of the best optimization technique used to bring out the optimal values of speed, feed and depth of cut for attain minimum surface roughness, cutting tool temperature and tool wear. AA7075 alloy with 15wt% of silicon carbide has been investigated in the dry machining condition. The double layered TiCN/Al2O3 coated tool was preferred. The worn surface analysis in coated tool was concentrated. The outcomes of the machining conditions were expected to improve surface finish. Novel approach of this investigation is to analyze the surface morphology to visualize the surface peak and valley profile of the coated tool and analyzed with various surface parameters that decide the surface roughness of the profile.
