This study investigates the optimization parameters for micro-milling of Mg13Sn alloy and examines the effects of different cutting parameters on cutting forces and surface roughness. The results indicate that increasing the feed rate and depth of cut significantly increases the cutting forces, while increasing the cutting speed noticeably reduces the cutting forces. Additionally, the study finds that surface roughness increases with increasing feed rate but decreases with increasing cutting speed. The findings offer important insights for micro-milling of Mg13Sn alloys.
This comprehensive study investigates the micro-milling of a Mg13Sn alloy, a material of considerable interest in various high-precision applications, such as biomedical implants. The main objective of the study was to explore the optimizations of variable feed per tooth (fz), cutting speed (Vc), and depth of cut (ap) parameters on the key outcomes of the micro-milling process. A unique experimental setup was employed, employing a spindle capable of achieving up to 60,000 revolutions per minute. Additionally, the study leveraged linear slides backed by micro-step motors to facilitate precise axis movements, thereby maintaining a resolution accuracy of 0.1 mu m. Cutting forces were accurately captured by a mini dynamometer and subsequently evaluated based on the peak to valley values for Fx (tangential force) and Fy (feed force). The study results revealed a clear and complex interplay between the varied cutting parameters and their subsequent impacts on the cutting forces and surface roughness. An increase in feed rate and depth of cut significantly increased the cutting forces. However, the cutting forces were found to decrease noticeably with the elevation of cutting speed. Intriguingly, the tangential force (Fx) was consistently higher than the feed force (Fy). Simultaneously, the study determined that the surface roughness, denoted by Sa values, increased in direct proportion to the feed rate. It was also found that the Sa surface roughness values decreased with the increase in cutting speed. This study recommends a parameter combination of fz = 5 mu m/tooth feed rate, Vc = 62.8 m/min cutting speed, and ap = 400 mu m depth of cut to maintain a Sa surface roughness value of less than 1 mu m while ensuring an optimal material removal rate and machining time. The results derived from this study offer vital insights into the micro-milling of Mg13Sn alloys and contribute to the current body of knowledge on the topic.
