Estimation of optimal cutting conditions during machining of CP-Ti grade 2 in fuzzy–VIKOR context
2020
To explore a hybrid approach in order to attain optimal cutting conditions proficient of generating adequate dimensional accuracy in combination with virtuous surface finish during turning of commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) grade 2.,In the present paper, an application of the hybrid fuzzy–VIKOR method has been proposed to estimate an optimal combination of process variables during turning of commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) grade 2. Three distinct input factors, namely, cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut, were selected, each varied at three levels. Thus, a series of experiments were performed based on Taguchi's 3-factor-3-level (L27) orthogonal array. The major attention was given to acquire minimum cutting force and flank wear along with good surface finish. The adequacy of the proposed methodology was verified with the help of ANOVA test.,The results of the investigation revealed that the suggested hybrid technique is quite effective, easily understandable and time-saving approach, which can be successfully implemented to solve various problems either of similar or of different kinds.,Increasing demand of qualitative as well as low cost products is identified as the main challenging task in the current competitive market. Therefore, estimation and selection of the most suitable machining environment are of paramount importance in a real-time manufacturing system. Machining process involves both qualitative and quantitative factors, may be conflicting in nature, all to be considered together. Consequently, an appropriate combination of the machining variables is evidently desirable to meet the aforesaid challenges effectively.
