Abstract
CNC milling has become one of the most competent, productive and flexible manufacturing methods, for complicated or sculptured surfaces. With the rising demands of modern engineering products, the control of surface texture together with high material removal rate has become more important. In this paper, the effects of various process parameters of CNC Milling like Spindle Speed (N), table feed rate (FR), depth of cut (DOC), step over (SO) and coolant pressure (CP) have been investigated to reveal their impact on surface roughness and material removal rate of hot die steel (H-11) using one variable at a time approach(OFAT). The experimental studies were performed on SURYA VF30 CNC VS machine. The processing of the job has been done by solid carbide four flute end-mill tools under finishing conditions. Prediction of surface roughness is very difficult using mathematical equations. The surface roughness (SR) increases with increase of table feed rate (FR), depth of cut (DOC), step over(SO) and decreases with increase in spindle speed(N) and coolant pressure(CP) & the material removal rate (MRR) directly increases with increase in spindle speed (N), table feed rate (FR) , depth of cut (DOC) and step over(SO).
