et al. 2024

“…Various studies have explored the effect of turning process parameters on surface roughness and developed mathematical models using response surface methodology (RSM) [28][29][30]. While depth of cut significantly influences cutting force, its impact on surface roughness may be insignificant in some cases [31]. Interaction effects between feed and depth of cut, as well as all cutting parameters, influence cutting force, but do not necessarily impact surface roughness.…”

Modern manufacturers aim to maintain competitiveness by relying on their manufacturing engineers and production personnel to efficiently establish manufacturing processes for new products. The focus of the current experimental study is on identifying optimal controlled process parameters to achieve both a good surface finish and accurate tool life prediction. This study investigates process parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut in machining grey cast iron.Experiments are meticulously designed and conducted using the Taguchi method, and corresponding surface roughness measurements are recorded. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is employed to validate the working ranges of the process parameters. Ultimately, the study aims to determine the optimum cutting parameters necessary for achieving the desired surface finish and enhancing tool life.

“…Figure 1 illustrates the generation of this relative motion using an interface element. Traditional interface components like sliders, ball bearings, and liquid or air films, which are often associated with friction and backlash issues, do not provide significant advantages in terms of high accuracy and repeatability [3, [33][34][35]. To mitigate friction and backlash concerns, these components can be replaced with flexible counterparts such as hinges and flexible beams.…”

The Planar XY Flexural Mechanism finds extensive use in precision motion systems, facilitating relative motion between a fixed support and a motion stage through material flexibility. Unlike rigid link mechanisms, this design offers significant advantages such as zero backlash, frictionless motion, and high-order repeatability, all in a more compact form factor. Notably, flexure mechanisms are constructed from a single monolith, a characteristic emphasized in this research. The focus is on modeling the flexural process to achieve precise scanning over a broader range at increased speeds. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is employed for static analysis to assess the motion stage's static deflection. Subsequently, the mechanism is activated using a weight pan and weights, with displacement monitored via a Dial Gauge Indicator. The experimental setup includes components such as the flexural mechanism, Dial Gauge, Weight Pan and Weights, Pulley, String, Small metal strip, and Optical Bread Board. Comparison of experimental and analytical findings reveals minimal variation, confirming the effectiveness of the flexural mechanism in providing precise motion for high-precision applications.
