Influence of grinding parameters on grinding force and temperature in grinding of AA6061-TiB2/ZrB2 in-situ composite

Abstract

In-situcomposite material synthesis has been widely recognized by the researchers owing tofine particle size, clean interface, and smart wettability of the reinforcement with the matrix.Variation of wheel speed, work speed, depth of cut and feed rate on grindability of AA6061-5%TiB2/ZrB2 in-situ composite are investigated.The present work is aimed to investigate the Grinding force and grinding temperature of the AA6061-TiB2/ZrB2 in-situ composite under various grinding parameters and wheel materials. A hike of wheel speed decreases the grinding force an increase in temperature. Increase in work speed, depth of cut and feed rate increase the grinding force and grinding temperature. This experimental investigation helps to control the grinding force and grinding temperature at the various grinding condition.
