Modelling and simulation of surface roughness in face milling

The paper presents a research on machined surface roughness in face milling of aluminium alloy on a low power cutting machine. Based on the results of the central-composite plan of experiment with varying machining parameters (number of revolutions - spindle speed n, feed rate f and depth of cut a) and the roughness observed as output variable, two models have been developed: a regression model and a model based on the application of neural networks (NN model). The regression model (coefficient of determination of 0.965 or 0.952 adjusted) with insignificant lack of fit, provides a very good fit and can be used to predict roughness throughout the region of experimentation. Likewise, the model based on the application of neural networks approximates well the experimental results with the level of RMS (Root Mean Square) error in the phase of validation of 4.01%.
