Abstract
This experimental study analyses the machinability of two composites namely: 1) Al7075-10%SiC-0.1% grapheme; 2) Al7075-10%SiC-0.1% CNT by turning process using uncoated and diamond-like carbon (DLC) coated carbide inserts. Composites were fabricated through united stir and squeeze casting process with ultra-sonification. The effect of graphene and CNT on cutting force, surface roughness, flank wear, crater wear and chip morphology were quantified and presented. Graphene-based composite, recorded the highest cutting force (383.4 N) followed by CNT-based (318.6 N). Higher surface roughness (0.8519 μm) was observed in CNT-based composite and least in (0.4428 μm) graphene-based. CNT-based composite recorded the highest flank wear (0.3544 mm) and graphene-based observed the least flank wear (0.2253 mm). It was also noted that the presence of graphene showed more influence in the chip morphology. Further, the effect of graphene and CNT reinforcements on the micro-structural properties were also investigated.
期刊介绍：
IJMMM is a refereed international publication in the field of machining and machinability of materials. Machining science and technology is an important subject with application in several industries. Parts manufactured by other processes often require further operations before the product is ready for application. Machining is the broad term used to describe removal of material from a workpiece, and covers chip formation operations - turning, milling, drilling and grinding, for example. Machining processes can be applied to work metallic and non metallic materials such as polymers, wood, ceramics, composites and special materials. Today, in modern manufacturing engineering, there has been strong renewed interest in high efficiency machining.
