Determination of Minimum Surface Roughness of Different Materials Using High speed Cutting Tool and Cemented Carbide Cutting Tool at Different Oblique Cutting Angle [ ]


The cutting forces depend upon the oblique cutting angle during turning. So, the angle should be determined with minimum roughness. A range of oblique cutting angle can be recommended from the performance study of the project report. But for a particular optimum oblique cutting angle may be determined from a brief analysis of every oblique cutting angle to apply commercially for a particular metal, tool, cutting speed, depth of cut, feed rate and cutting fluid.surface roughness (Ra) were measured. The roughness was measured with the same direction and dimension. The cemented carbide and high speed cutting tool were used. The material used were high carbon steel, mild steel and cast iron. Facing and turning were performed on the material. Carbide tool can cut high carbon steel, mild steel and cast iron while high speed tool can cut high carbon steel, mild steel but cannot cut cast iron because of it’s hardness.
