Description
Summary:Glass fibers are frequently utilized as reinforcing polymers. Glass fiber reinforced composites (GFRP) are unique due to their outstanding mechanical and physical characteristics that are useful in industrial applications. In order to mill these composites with good results, minimal fiber delamination and surface quality must be achieved. The current study aimed to improve the two critical milling parameters, feed rate and spindle speed, on performance attributes such as surface roughness (SR) and delamination factor (DF). The experimental design was planned using a Taguchi L9 orthogonal array. ANOVA was utilized to determine the impact of each parameter taken into consideration on performance characteristics. To achieve the lowest DF and SR values, the combination of the ideal parameters was determined to be higher spindle speed (SS) and lower feed rate (FR). Utilizing FESEM, the surface morphology was studied.
