Abstract
Cutting of metal matrix composites (MMCs) has been considerably difficult due to the extremely abrasive nature of the reinforcements causing rapid tool wear and high machining cost. In this experimental study, three aluminium-based metal matrix composites (MMCs) were produced using a high pressure infiltration. Machining tests were carried out by face milling on the MMCs using coated carbide (HM) cutting tool at various values of feed rate, width of cut and depth of cut, under a constant cutting speed. The effect of the varied parameters on the surface roughness was investigated. The obtained results indicate that the Rz and Rp parameters are more capable to describe the influence of the milling parameters on the surface quality.
