Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive study on the part development of Aluminium-Silicon Carbide (AlSiC) Particle Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) using Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining. AlSiC MMCs have gained significant attention due to their excellent mechanical properties and thermal conductivity, making them suitable for various applications in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and electronics. The objective of this research is to investigate the effects of CNC machining parameters, such as cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut, on the machinability and surface quality of AlSiC MMC parts. Additionally, the paper aims to optimize the CNC machining process to enhance the performance and dimensional accuracy of the machined parts.
