2308 Effect Cutting Parameters on Surface Roughness during End Milling of AISI D2 Tool Steel

Abstract

This paper study the effect of three different numerical cutting parameters on surface roughness using during high speed machining. This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect machining parameters of AISI D2 tool steel using an insert end mill. The experiment work plan was carried out using Box-Behken techniques, a part of response surface methodology (RSM) approach. The effect of variable milling cutting parameters were studied to evaluate their effects on surface roughness. In this study, the cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and width of cut were in the range of 100-200 m/min, 0.1-0.3 mm/tooth, 0.2 mm and 2.0-8.0 mm respectively. The effect of input factors that on the responds were identified by using mean of ANOVA. The responds of surface roughness then simultaneously optimized. The validation of the test reveals the model accuracy 9%.
