“…Ni et al 26 used the multi-objective grey Wolf algorithm to optimize hobbing parameters with required carbon footprints and manufacturing times as targets. Lv et al 27 established a comprehensive optimization model of the hob displacement and the energy consumption of a hobbing unit, and realized energy savings and the hob displacement for this hobbing unit. At present, almost all research with regard to hobbing parameter optimization has been performed by splitting energy consumption and hobbing accuracy.…”

Improving gear precision and achieving green sustainability in gear machining are two important aspects of the gear manufacturing process. However, to achieve these two goals simultaneously, it may be necessary to make trade-offs when selecting the gear processing parameters. In this work, both energy consumption and gear geometric deviations were considered simultaneously to optimize the hobbing parameters. The relationships between the hobbing parameters, energy consumption, and gear geometric deviations were modeled using the response surface method (RSM). The statistical significance of the model was tested using analysis of variance (ANOVA). An improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization (IMOPSO) was then performed to solve optimization problems that involved multiple and conflicting objectives in the hobbing process. The results obtained indicate that both the energy consumption ( E) and the gear geometric deviations are parameter-dependent. The feed rate ( f) and the spindle speed ( n) have opposing effects on both energy consumption E and the gear geometric deviations. The optimum hobbing parameter sets obtained from the calculated Pareto frontier can provide a feasible solution for manufacturers to solve the trade-off problems that occur in the hobbing process, and the experimental results confirmed the effectiveness of the IMOPSO approach.

Although the manufacturing industry has improved the quality of processing, optimization and upgrading must be performed to meet the requirements of global sustainable development. Sustainable production is considered to be a favorable strategy for achieving machining upgrades characterized by high quality, high efficiency, energy savings, and emission reduction. Sustainable production has aroused widespread interest, but only a few scholars have studied the sustainability of machining from multiple dimensions. The sustainability of machining must be investigated multidimensionally and accurately. Thus, this study explores the sustainability of machining from the aspects of equipment, process, and strategy. In particular, the equipment, process, and strategy of sustainable machining are systematically analyzed and integrated into a research framework. Then, this study analyzes sustainable machining-oriented machining equipment from the aspects of machine tools, cutting tools, and materials such as cutting fluid. Machining processes are explored as important links of sustainable machining from the aspects of dry cutting, microlubrication, microcutting, low-temperature cutting, and multidirectional cutting. The strategies for sustainable machining are also analyzed from the aspects of energy-saving control, machining simulation, and process optimization of machine tools. Finally, opportunities and challenges, including policies and regulations toward sustainable machining, are discussed. This study is expected to offer prospects for sustainable machining development and strategies for implementing sustainable machining.
