Summary: | This paper discussed the investigation of the burr formation in micro end milling process on stainless steel.
Thus, formation of burr after machined by micro end milling process was investigated and analyzed. Tungsten
carbide end mill cutting tool of diameter 500 μm was used with depth of cut of 200 μm. A number of microchannels
were machined to characterize the process parameters that influenced the burr formation of micro end milling
process. Two-level three-factor of experiments were developed to predict the burr height. Experiments were
conducted with two process parameters: feed per tooth and cutting speeds. Heights of the burrs with different
condition of parameters were measured. Burr height was found to be linearly proportional to feed per tooth and
cutting speeds. Elimination of the burrs from the microchannel surface would give a good geometric accuracy which
it can be used for microfluidic analysis. |
