| Summary: | Selection of the optimum machining parameters is essential to enhance the performance of the machining
process. These parameters will determine the quality of surface finish, rate of tool wear, material removal rate and
production cycle time. This research focused on obtaining the optimum machining parameters by minimizing the
machining time in pocket milling operations. The parameter such as feed per tooth, cutting speed,and depth of cut are
considered the important variables to minimize the machining time in milling process since it has produced a significant
consequence on the machining process. Genetic Algorithm (GA) has been implemented to obtain the optimum
parameters. A fitness function of production time incorporated of roughing and finishing process has been developed in
Matlab Software. Then, Genetic Algorithm Toolbox has been employed to conduct the computational experiment.
Mastercam software has been used to verify the algorithm's results by applying the optimum parameter generated by GA
in the Mastercam. Based on the comparison, it has been found that the difference in machining for both methods is
3.48%. It shows that optimization based on GA is capable of reducing production time in the machining process. |
