Type: article
Abstract: Laser cutting is a popular non-traditional thermal machining technique. With this machining technique, almost all the materials having com-plex geometries are machined with higher accuracy. In this paper experimental study of dross height formation on 25 mm thick laser machining of SS 310 material utilizing CO2 laser and fiber lasers is carried out. Dross height is measured to evaluate the influence of varying process parameters, consisting of gas pressure, cutting speed, and laser power. For the experimental task, a Bystronic laser machine is utilized. There are 17 trial runs in all, with three components and two levels selected. ANOVA is utilized in mathematical calculations. The optimized values during laser machining are identified for the process parameters. Optimum values for these factors are defined with the goal of attaining the minimum dross height. The primary interpretation made from this experimental study is that dross height increases as there is increase in the laser power.
