“…Predicted value of SR provided by ANFIS model shows good agreement with the experimental result. Jagadeesh et al [80] studied SR and kerf taper on symmetric CFRP laminate. They found traverse rate and SOD as most influencing factor for minimum SR and kerf taper and recommended a combination of low traverse rate and short SOD.…”

Fiber-reinforced composites have established as a high-performance composite of modern advanced structures in various sectors such as automotive, aerospace, and marine industries. Non-conventional machining processes are preferred for the ease of manufacturing operations, which incorporates the machining of high strength and anisotropic material. Non-conventional manufacturing processes produce complicated shaped profiles and better surface characteristics. Abrasive water jet (AWJ) machining is an emerging technology that offers an excellent alternative among the various advanced machining processes due to its process capabilities and excellent machining quality. AWJ machining has fascinated immense attention in the fields of fiber-reinforced composite materials to produce intricate industrial components and attracted the researchers and production industries. It has become well-known in all key areas of researches. Over the past 30 years, lots of research work has been carried out to describe the machining performances among the studied process parameters. This paper reviews the research progresses and integrated functions of AWJ machining in terms of mechanism and machining performances, which includes aspects such as mathematical modeling and optimization. AWJ machining procedure and performance capability are reviewed and depicted in detail. Also, a comprehensive conclusion of this review, along with future perspective, is explored subsequently. The current review work will help future researchers for the proper selection of different FRP material composite compositions and AWJ machining parameters to achieve better performances. The collection of this review literature will also support the production operations in the future.

The recent trends shows that numerous new materials are rapidly emerging and developed. It creates considerable interest in the researcher to search out the optimum combination of machining parameters during machining of these materials using advanced machining processes. Abrasive water jet cutting is a non-traditional machining method that offers a productive alternative to conventional techniques. It uses a fine jet of ultra-high pressure water and abrasive slurry to cut the target material by means of erosion. In order to obtain a product with high surface quality, the abrasive water jet machining process must be precisely controlled. In this work, an experimental investigation is carried out on abrasive water jet machining (AWJM) process for the machining of aluminium composite panel using the Taguchi methodology. Parameters such as transverse speed, standoff distance and mass flow rate are considered to obtain the influence of these parameters on kerf taper angle surface roughness and deamination factor. ANOVA and Regression analysis are performed to identify the impact of process parameters on performance parameters. Keywords: AWJM, Taguchi, ANOVA, Regression, Optimization I. INTRODUCTIONAluminium composite panels are flat panels consisting of two thin coil coated aluminium sheets bonded to a non-aluminium core. It is commonly used material by signage industry for providing artwork piece with better strength and aesthetics. The machining of ACP can be done with traditional as well as non-traditional ways of machining. In the case of traditional machining of ACP, in order to minimize the amount of heat generated and avoid thermal damage to the part, the proper tool geometry and operating conditions must be adopted. Precautions also should be taken to avoid introducing delamination in the work piece by limiting tool wear in order to keep machining forces low and by using back-up material to prevent delamination as the tool exist the work piece. So, Particularly in case of ACP composite if traditional machining is need to be done than, a specially designed tool will be required as well as there is also a need of backup material at the tool exit to avoid the amount of delamination. It will be difficult and costlier for industries. The non-traditional machining of ACP is possible with various machining processes like EDM, LBM, ECM, ECDM and AWJM. The main problem associated with EDM process like deposition of resolidified layer that hampers the surface quality. Tool wear and tool breaking are another major problems combined with this process. The LBM produced surfaces are affected by the transformed microstructure of matrix material due to excessive heat, presence of striation pattern and dross attachment at the bottom. The formation of pits at low voltage due to low current density and formation of streak at low electrolyte flow rate due to low turbulence on the machined surface during ECM is obvious. In AWJM the material removal takes place by means of erosion not by deformation wear. The quality of...

The bonding of metallic alloys and composite materials in the form of a hybrid structure is a line of great interest for the current industry. The different machinability of both materials requires a specific machining process. Abrasive water-jet machining (AWJM) is an excellent technology for the simultaneous machining of both materials. However, defects at the micro and macro-geometric level have been detected in several scientific articles. In this review, a detailed study of the two main defects in metals, composite materials and hybrid structures has been developed. The conclusions of several scientific articles have been exposed for a better understanding of the topic in articles between 1984 and 2020. The influence of the cutting parameters on the reduction in kinetic energy of the water jet and the order of stacking of the materials in the hybrid structure is the main objective in order to minimize these defects. Cutting parameter optimization studies, predictive model proposals, process-associated defects and evaluation methodologies have been discussed. The aim of this article is to set a solid background on AWJM machining in hybrid structures and on the influence of cutting parameters on generated defects and machining strategies to obtain the best results at a macro and micro-geometric level.
