This paper presents the design and development of low cost strain gauge type milling tool dynamometer, which is suitable for measuring milling forces. The designed dynamometer contains four octagonal ring members on which strain gauges were bonded. The strain induced on the strain gauges due to...

In the present research work Oil Hardened Naturally Shrinking (OHNS) work-material which is commonly used in plastic industries is considered for machining by WEDM process. Four different control parameters are deliberated to study the effect on the responses like material removal rate, overcut...

In this study, the tool wear and surface integrity during machining of wrought and Selective Laser Melted (SLM) titanium alloy (after heat treatment) are studied. Face turning trails were carried out on both the materials at different cutting speeds of 60,120 and 180 m/min. Cutting tools and...

The present investigation is aimed at optimizing the friction stir spot welding (FSSW) process parameters such as tool rotational speed, plunge rate, dwell time and tool diameter ratio, to attain the maximum strength in dissimilar joints of AA6061 aluminum and carbon steel. Experiments were...
