Super duplex stainless steels (SDSSs) combine austenite and ferrite in near equal proportions along with other alloying elements giving these steels excellent mechanical and chemical properties and making them of much use across industries. The same characteristics that give SDSS advantageous properties impair their machinability and make cutting of SDSS prone to unstable process-induced chatter vibrations. The focus of this paper is to hence investigate the machinability and machining stability of dry turning SDSS. Based on systematic experimental characterisation, we identify cutting force coefficients that characterise machinability and observe these coefficients to be relatively speed independent. We further observe surface characteristics to improve with cutting speeds. Using identified coefficients and measured dynamics, we predict the stability behaviour. Experimental validation confirms that the nose radius on cutting tools plays a significant role in improving the chatter vibration-free turning of SDSS. Our findings can instruct highperformance strategies for turning of SDSS.

The interest in the application of carbon nanotube (CNT) composites is recently increasing in several industrial sectors. The main reason for this growing attention is the reinforcing effect of the CNTs. However, the composite use is limited by technological issues concerning the manufacturing processes when small features are required. A multistage process chain could exploit the advantages of suitable processes to enhance the control of the filler orientation. This paper investigates the feasibility of milling micro features on micro injected specimens of POM/CNT and LCP/CNT composites. Design of experiment is used to study a suitable experimental design to investigate the influence of the material and the process parameters on the machinability and the feature geometry. POM-based composites showed a better machinability and allowed a fabrication of more accurate features, while LCP showed high cutting forces and the presence of diffused burrs, preventing the fabrication of very small features.

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is used to machine difficult-to-machine materials having high hardness and toughness. One of the recent advancements in the EDM process is the powder mixed electrical discharge machining (PMEDM) process, in which the metallic or abrasive additives in the form of fine powders are added to the dielectric fluid. PMEDM was found to improve machinability in terms of higher material removal rate (MRR) and enhanced tool wear index (TWI), by reducing the breakdown strength of the dielectric. In PMEDM process, machining happens with relatively larger spark gap with enhanced machining characteristics. This paper investigates the influence of powder mixing on the breakdown strength of the liquid dielectric and the gap voltage. Determination of dielectric strength was carried out with a specially designed experimental set-up adhering to ASTM standard D1816 - 97. Tests were conducted using silicon carbide, alumina, copper and aluminium powders. The effect of varying the grain size was also studied. An experimental set-up was also designed and realised to measure the influence of powder mixing on the gap voltage and MRR in machining of titanium alloy. The results have shown significant improvement in MRR and TWI.
