Milling of Glass Fiber-Reinforced Plastics and Influence of Cutting Process Parameters on Cutting Forces
Some invariable situations where component to be joined even though machining is not advisable for composites. But special situations here present work aimed at identifying better machining process parameters to arrive at defect free machined surfaces. In general laminated composite materials are machined at very high speed to generate a defect free machined surface. The precise measurement of cutting forces is very essential to know the influence of cutting forces of the work piece. In this connection precision machining is needed the present research work deals experimentations performed with two different mill tools and varieties of tool signatures are carefully analyzed with the mill tool dynamometer. The experimental layout was designed based on the 2^k factorial techniques and analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed to identify the effect of cutting parameters on surface finish and cutting forces are developed by using multiple regression analysis.
