The main theme is to evaluate the effects of Nd:YAG laser beam power besides work piece scanning speed. For approximate cutting depth, a theoretical study is conducted in terms of material property and cutting speed. Results show a nonlinear relation between the cutting depth and input energy. There is no significant effect of speed on cutting depth with the speed being larger than 30 mm/s. An extra energy is utilized in the deep cutting. It is inferred that as the laser power increases, cutting depth increases. The experimental outcomes are in good agreement with theoretical results. This analysis will provide a guideline for laser-based industry to select a suitable laser for cutting, scribing, trimming, engraving, and marking nonmetallic materials.展开更多

This makes them an alluring alternative in swapping metals for different building applications. The present review is a study on the influence of composite titanium on the cutting parameters, mechanical behavior, reinforcements, structure and nanostructure. This review will provide an understanding into selecting the optimum machining parameters for machining titanium composites. It’s also an attempt to give brief explanation by suitably machining the titanium composite which can be made reasonable.展开更多
