Abstract

This study is based on Taguchi’s design of experiments along with grey relational analysis (GRA) to optimize the milling parameters to minimize surface roughness, tool wear, and vibration during machining of Inconel-625 while using coconut oil as cutting fluid (CF). The experiments were conducted based on Taguchi’s L9 orthogonal array (OA). Taguchi’s S/N was used for identifying the optimal cutting parameter for individual response. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to analyze the outcome of individual parameters on responses. The surface roughness was mostly influenced by feed. Flank wear was influenced by speed and the vibration was mostly influenced by the depth of cut as well as speed. The multi-response optimization was done through GRA. From GRA, the optimal parameters were identified. Further, nanoboric acid of 0.5 and 0.9wt.% was mixed with coconut oil to enhance lubricant properties. Coconut oil with 0.5wt.% of nanoboric acid minimizes the surface roughness and flank wear by 3.92% and 6.28% and reduces the vibration in the z-axis by 4.85%. The coconut oil with 0.5wt.% of nanoboric acid performs better than coconut oil with 0.9wt.% of nano boric acid and base oil.
