Effect of process parameters on surface roughness produced by turning boring operation

Critical quality measure and surface roughness (Ra) in mechanical parts depends on turning parameters during the turning process. Researchers have predicted and developed various models to determine the optimum turning parameters for the required surface roughness. The main objective of this study i...

description Critical quality measure and surface roughness (Ra) in mechanical parts depends on turning parameters during the turning process. Researchers have predicted and developed various models to determine the optimum turning parameters for the required surface roughness. The main objective of this study is to investigate the different cutting tool length parameter effect of surface roughness in CNC Turning boring operation for an aluminium 6061 workpiece. A fractional factorial design is use to evaluate the effect of five (5) independent variables (cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, tool length and diameter of boring bar) on the resulting first cut surface roughness (Ra).
