Abstract
Nanomaterials are gaining extensive application in the manufacturing sector due to favorable properties. Its rapid growth in highly sensitive, robust, and lightweight sensors and biomedical components has attracted considerable attention worldwide. Nanomaterial uses with fiber-reinforced polymeric material have increased significantly. In order to manufacture structural components in a near-net shape, laminated nanocomposite machining is required. Due to the need for product assembly in mechanical structures, Milling is the primarily machining process in the manufacturing industry to create slots, channels, etc. The present work optimized the process variables affecting the Milling process by adopting the minimize criterion to control the delamination factor using the Taguchi method. The process parameters include cutting speed, feed, depth of cut, and filler material Graphene Oxide. The optimized conditions were found as cutting speed (Vc) 37.12 m/min, spindle feed (F) 80 mm/min, depth of cut (D) 0.5 mm and filler material Graphene Oxide (G) 1 wt.%. The percentage contribution of the process parameter on the delamination factor (Fd) was determined using the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) method, and it has been found the feed rate (62.60%) is the most influencing factor. The delamination factor obtained in the confirmatory experiments carried out under optimized conditions was found lower than the Taguchi design test runs. The findings indicate that process parameter optimization under the given set of experimental conditions is effective for a manufacturing environment.
