%X Present day metal cutting industry has to meet the challenges of
productivity and the quality of the machined parts during the turning processes
economically. In the present work, an attempt has been made to develop a model
and predict the tool wear and nodal temperature of hard turned AISI D3
hardened steel using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The combined effects
of cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut are investigated using contour
plots. RSM based Central Composite Design (CCD) is applied as an experimental
design. Al2O3/TiC mixed ceramic tool with a corner radius
of 0.8 mm is employed to accomplish 20 tests with six centre points. The
adequacy of the developed models is checked using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).
Main and interaction plots are drawn to study the effect of process
parameters on output responses.
