Abstract
The paper purpose is to investigate the influence of some of the machining input factors and conditions on the surface texture and roughness parameters. The machining tests were carried out on a homebuilt (DIY) CNC router with a one teeth carbide flat end mills. The router movements were calibrated in order to assure three decimals precision. The spindle speed is controlled by a frequency converter that allows setting the speed ranging from 0 to 20000 rpm. Rectangular pockets were milled considering cutting across and along the grain and at a 45-degree angle. Different cutting path strategies were generated using a specialized CAM software. A Taguchi DOE method was considered and a confocal microscope type CWM 100 produced by Mahr was used to analyze the surface texture and roughness parameters.
