Cutting Parameters Optimization to Reduce Errors in Milling Mould

Abstract:

Precision cutting, considering the time, cost and flexibility of the production, has been one of the major goals in manufacturing. Nowadays with helping of a lot of modern technology including many of instruments with high accuracy or of many researches focused on using new technological tools such as linear motors, laser and piezoelectric actuators in cutting operations to decrease the basic parts errors (straightness, roundness, diameter error, etc.) for commercial CNC lathes in a cheaper way, but errors always happened after manufacturing between the geometry of the parts which the designer wants to get and the actual parts after manufacturing .In this research Taguchi method is used to design optimal parameters for the high-speed CNC milling machine to reduce parts geometric errors for manufacturing with cheaper cost, economic with using available instruments on the industrial partners.
