Development of an Empirical Model for Variable Power Consumption Machining Processes: A Case of End Facing

Abstract

Machining processes contribute significantly to the energy consumption of manufacturing industries, and reducing their energy consumption is a major challenge to achieve sustainable and cleaner manufacturing. The accurate and practical energy consumption prediction models for a machine tool are the foundation for sustainable and cleaner manufacturing. The machining of a workpiece mainly involves constant-power consumption machining processes e.g. turning and variablepower consumption machining processes e.g. end facing. The cutting power characteristics of the variable-power consumption machining processes are more complex and dynamic, due to change in one of the process parameters (e.g. cutting speed during end facing) than the constant-power consumption machining processes, and have received limited attention in the literature. In the present work, an empirical model is developed to predict the cutting energy consumption of the variable-power consumption machining process i.e. end facing. The end facing experiments were performed on a Computer Numerical Control Lathe in the dry and wet environment to obtain the fitting constants of the developed model. Four validation experiments were performed to confirm the prediction capability of the developed model. The validation experiments confirm that the accuracy of the developed model is more than 96%. Further, the predicted power profiles were in good agreement with the measured power profiles, which shows that the developed model satisfactorily encompasses the influences of the process parameters on the cutting power consumption.

Performance Analysis of Channel Estimator with Interference Detection Architecture

“…Each block and each of its child blocks are individually tested, and any faults are then xed. [10] For the Multiple Input Multiple Output-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO -OFDM) method and the channel evaluate with interference detection architectural block, test-bench waveforms are produced. Before the design is implemented on an FPGA Fig.…”

Optimization Experimental Study of Machining Energy Consumption of Zig-Zag Milling Cutting Path Using Rsm.

“…The correlation between energy consumption and material removal rate (MRR) has garnered increased attention due to the significance of MRR as a measure of machining operation efficiency. Pawan S. et al [10] developed a formulation for multi objective optimization model of machining energy consumption (Ecdry) and material removal rate, MRR. The combination of Taguchi and Gey relation analysis methods was applied to gather the cumulative performance of MRR and Ecdry.…”
