Machining of composite materials through advance machining process

Abstract

This study explores those composite materials are difficult to machinate because of their variability, heat sensitivity, and high abrasiveness. This leads to damages to the material and extremely high tool wear and damage to the tool. A thorough overview of advanced machining techniques for composite materials is presented in this article. There is an emphasis on glass and carbon fiber reinforced polymeric composites and long fiber reinforced metal matrix composites in the area of fiber-reinforced composites. Particulate composites cannot be machined in the same way as metal matrix composites, though conventional machining processes due to their advanced properties. As per the previous research we concluded that advance machining process is used to cut hard material such as ceramics, composites, Titanium, etc. It is the opposite of traditional machining when a wedge-shaped tool is used to remove material in the form of chips by causing friction coefficient. These techniques have been used in a number of ways to remove material. One approach is to produce stresses via various methods but not with a well-directed wedge-shaped instrument in the material. Some of the techniques like ultrasonic machining, water jet machining, and abrasive jet machining, to name a few of them. The thermal effect may also be used to dissolve or evaporate the materials. Successful and cheap, advanced machining techniques are finding application in sectors.
