Abstract

This paper examines the influence of the cutting parameters on the cutting forces and the surface roughness at the face milling process when machining aluminum alloy 7075 is obtained by the new SSM casting process. The parameters of the milling process are the cutting speed, the feed per tooth and the depth of cut. The experiments
were performed according to the Taguchi method according to the L9 plan and the factors varied at three levels. For analysis of the effects of these parameters S/N ratio is used. In addition, ANOVA analysis was performed, i.e. analysis of the variance of the selected parameters. The analysis of the results shows that the optimal combination for the cutting force is the choice of a minimum level for all tested parameters. In contrast, for average arithmetic roughness, the optimal processing regime is achieved with minimum values for cutting speed and feed per tooth, whilst it is preferable to choose the cutting depth at the median level for the observed range. In addition, the study shows that the Taguchi method is suitable for solving the problem, where the research was carried out with a minimum number of tests compared to a full factorial experimental plan.
