Abstract
This paper presents an experimental study to analyze the surface roughness reached in pieces of UNS M11917 magnesium alloy obtained by intermittent turning. A design of experiments (DOE) was established to carry out the study. Namely, factors identified as posible sources of variation of the surface roughness and their levels, written between parentheses, are the following: depth of cut (1), feed rate (2), spindle speed (2), type of tool (2), quantity of lubrication (3), type of interruption (3), measurement length (3) and measurement generatrice (3). Due to the high number of possible combinations that can be generated with the set of factors and levels identified a combined design of experiments L4x32 was performed. Data are was analyzed by means of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) method. The main results of the statistical analysis highlight the great influence of the feed rate on surface roughness among the set of factors and their interactions considered. In addition, focusing on the intermittent cutting, type of interruption and its interaction with the type of tool used are also important sources of variation, but at a lower level than feed rate.
