| Summary: | Cylindrical aspects are one of the most fundamental traits in mechanical designs because they contribute significantly to various mechanical products such as shafts and revolving devices. Besides, it is crucial because it can determine the performance of the parts like the application used in transmission system. Basically, cylindricity can be defined as a condition of a surface of revolution in which all points on the surface are equidistant from a common axis. Cylindrical parts can be produced by using many machines and processes that are available. Numerous factors in manufacturing processes may cause a cylindrical part to depart from its ideal shape. It is essential to design proper experiment for assessing cylindricity. Therefore, the choice of the best combination parameters is important to control the cylindrical geometry. Turning operation using conventional lathe machine is used to produce this feature, while for evaluating the geometry, dial gauge is utilized. From the experiment, the best combination of parameter are feed rate of 0.15 mm/rev which had the biggest effect on cylindricity measurement followed by the cutting speed of 150 m/min and lastly is the depth of cut of 0.5 mm. |
