Parametric Investigations on Surface Roughness of Hard Turned AISI 52100 Steel

Abstract:

The present work is aimed to investigate the effect of the turning parameters on the surface roughness produced during hard turning of AISI 52100 bearing steel with PCBN cutting tools. The experiments are devised using Taguchi L₂₇ orthogonal array and analysis is carried out using MINITAB 14 software. The influence of individual parameters is discussed with main effects plot and the combined parametric effect is presented with interaction effects plot. From the results it is observed that speed and nose radius has a great influence on surface roughness. The interaction effect is significant for speed and feed combination.
