A Literature Review on Performance Evaluation of Carbide Tool on Turning of Alloy Steel

the main objective of today's manufacturing industries is to produce low cost, high quality products in short time. The selection of optimal cutting parameters is a very important issue for every machining process in order to enhance the quality of machining products and reduce the machining costs. This paper investigates the machining of alloy steel to find optimal parameters for CNC turning process. The Taguchi method is used to formulate the experimental layout, to analysis the effect of each parameter on the machining characteristics and to predict the optimal choice for each turning parameters such as Speed, Feed and Depth of cut. It is found that these parameters have a significant influence on machining characteristics such as Material removal rate (MRR) and Surface roughness (SR). The Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is used to study the performance characteristics in turning operation.
