    MACHINING OF

    COMPOSITES
    INTRODUCTION

    • Composites are combinations of two or more


    materials. This is done to gain benefit from
    both material properties.
    • Composite material attaining worldwide
    popularity for manufacturing, aerospace and
    automobile industries .
    • In machining of composite materials, reducing
    damage and reliable surface roughness
    characterization is necessary
    • Composite materials are very hard to machine
    due to their structural non homogeneity and
    anisotropic nature.

    CONVENTIONAL MACHINING
    • Composites can be machined by many conventional machining processes such as turning,
    milling, drilling, tapping, grinding, honing, sawing.
    • Results shows:
    Huge amount of tool wear
    Poor machineability
    Poor surface quality
    Low accuracy
    POLYCRYSTALLINE DIAMOND TOOLS
    • Accelerated wear occurs on cutting
    tools.
    • Polycrystalline diamond tools gives
    better results.
    • Quality of chip formation depends on
    fibre orientation and cutting speed.
    • Surface finish is also affected.
    NON CONVENTIONAL MACHINING

    ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINE


    ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINE

    • The selection of proper machining


    parameters is an important criterion while
    machining in EDM and also the expertise
    of the operator.
    • The pulse duration had significant effect
    on material removal rate and peak current
    was the most effective parameter for
    surface roughness.
    • It was found out that material removal
    rate (MRR) and tool wear rate increased
    with increase in current.
    WIRE ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINE
    WIRE ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINE

    • Wire electrical discharge


    machining (WEDM) is a
    thermal non-contact technique
    of machining.
    • Within the past decade, the
    WEDM process is a competitive
    and economical machining
    • Used for Metal Matrix
    Composites and ceramic
    composites.
    APPLICATIONS
    • Composite materials are widely used in the
    aircraft manufacturing industries
    • Railway sectors
    • Defense
    • Micro systems industries,
    • Agriculture farm machinery
    • Fiber-reinforced polymer composite pipes are
    used for sewer upgrades and wastewater projects
    • Composites help enable the use of wind and
    solar power and improve the efficiency
