Multi Response Optimization of CNC End Milling- Review and Optimization

CNC end milling is the most important milling process, widely used in the manufacturing industries due to its capability of producing complex geometric surfaces with responsible accuracy and surface finish along with flexibility and versatility. In order to build up a bridge between quality and productivity and to achieve the same in an economic way, the present study highlights optimization of CNC end milling process parameters to provide good surface finish and high material removal rate with less power consumption. In manufacturing context, multi-response optimization of machining processes is one of the most important areas of research to find out the best process environment for any machining operation. In this review literature survey for multi response optimization of CNC end milling is conducted and introduce a hybrid metaheuristic method as GA & MLPNN, and a combination of Taguchi, GRA and KPCA for multi response optimization.
