Due to the urgent need for global reductions of environmental impacts, many studies have been carried out in different fields. One of the most important sectors is manufacturing, particularly due to the high power consumption of the production machines of manufacturing plants. This paper focuses on the efficiency of the machining centres and provides an experimental approach to evaluate and optimize the process parameters in order to minimize the power consumption in a milling process performed on a modern CNC machine. The parameters evaluated are the cutting speed, the axial and radial depth of cut, and the feed rate. A lubrication strategy has been chosen based on previous studies: all the tests have been carried out using dry lubrication in order to eliminate the environmental impact due to lubricant without substantially affecting the energy consumption. The process has been analyzed using a Response Surface Method in order to obtain a model fit for the fine tuning of the process parameters.

Abstract
Due to the urgent need for global reductions of environmental impacts, many studies have been carried out in different fields. One of the most important sectors is manufacturing, particularly due to the high power consumption of the production machines of manufacturing plants. This paper focuses on the efficiency of the machining centres and provides an experimental approach to evaluate and optimize the process parameters in order to minimize the power consumption in a milling process performed on a modern CNC machine. The parameters evaluated are the cutting speed, the axial and radial depth of cut, and the feed rate. A lubrication strategy has been chosen based on previous studies: all the tests have been carried out using dry lubrication in order to eliminate the environmental impact due to lubricant without substantially affecting the energy consumption. The process has been analyzed using a Response Surface Method in order to obtain a model fit for the fine tuning of the process parameters.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
