Abstract
Machining of alloy materials at high cutting speeds produces high temperatures in the cutting zone, which affects the surface quality. Thus, developing a model for estimating the cutting parameters and optimizing this model to minimize the surface roughness and cutting temperatures becomes utmost important to avoid any damage to the quality surface. This paper presents the development of new models and optimizing these models of machining parameters to minimize the surface roughness and cutting temperature in end milling process by Taguchi method with the statistical approach. Two objectives have been considered, minimum arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) and cutting temperature. Due to the complexity of this machining optimization problem, a single objective Taguchi method has been applied to resolve the problem, and the results have been analyzed.
