Abstract

Nowadays, the manufacturing industry is one of the main factors that can increase the economy of a country. In the manufacturing industry is including the machining operation that takes part in a process to produce the product. Therefore, to reduced machining time and cost, the optimum machining parameters must be selected suitability for the turning process to achieve the desired quality of the finished product. Next, the most significant issues in metal cutting are tool wear. In this research, the effects of machining parameters on cutting tool under wet machining environment were studied. The objective of this project is to identify the optimum parameter for wet turning process and to study the significant factor of tool wear in this turning process. The material chosen to be performed in this study is low carbon steel AISI 1018. The experiments were conducted using three factors, cutting speed, feed rate and the depth of cut each having three levels. Nine experiments were executed on a CNC Turning Machine. ANOVA was used to determine the level of importance of the machining parameters on tool life. The results shown that depth of cut is the most significant process parameter for tool wear with a percent of contribution 32.00%, followed by feed rate with a percent of contribution 24.41% and lastly is cutting speed with 17.37%. This research concluded that the optimum parameter obtained with 400 RPM, feed rate 0.07 mm/min and depth of cut is 0.5 mm.
