Advanced Cutting and Machining Processes for Composites and Biocomposites focuses on the latest advances in this important research field, covering a broad range of composites and presenting various case studies related to conventional and unconventional cutting processes in terms of optimization, cutting analysis, and cutting tools. Key challenges in terms of quality and their impact on the final product are also discussed in detail. The book also contains experimental studies that explain how various machining and cutting techniques can be used to obtain the best results by controlling different operating input parameters.
This will be a valuable reference resource for materials scientists, designers, manufacturers, and engineers as it provides extensive information on cutting and machining of composite materials as well as the cutting properties of these materials. It also presents experimental results and final concepts that will benefit manufacturers to achieve efficient cutting operations to avoid defects and reduce their impact on the final product.
