1	Effect of Tool Materials and Aluminum Hybrid Metal Matrix Composite on Tool Cutting Forces Naveen C R, Thomas Pinto Abstract - In this article, the effect of tool materials (HSS & Tungsten carbide) on machining of Aluminum hybrid metal matrix composite as-cast, age hardened and mild steel by measuring cutting forces is reported. The Aluminum hybrid metal matrix composites are Al20204+10%SiC+2.5%Gr and Al20204+10%Al2O3+2.5%Gr. These hybrid composites are used as they are casted and then as age hardened. These four work pieces are used to measure cutting force with HSS and Tungsten carbide tool. A comparison of these four composites are made with pure Al20204 and Mild steel work piece. The machining time is increased upto 15 minutes and the feed rate is changed from 0 to 0.15 mm/rev. the depth of cut and speed are maintained constant and vegetable oil is used as coolant. From the analysis it is found that the tangential and trust force increase with time and feed irrespective of any material. However, Tungsten carbide tool showed higher forces than HSS tool.	Download
