Abstract

Burr formation on workpiece during machining is a well-established problem faced by the manufacturing industry. Growth of burr and its formation is observed in all types of machining operations. Burr is required to be removed from the workpiece before its assembly, dispatch or delivery known as deburring operation. Presence of burr on workpiece edge leads to physical injury, assembly problem, malfunctioning, wear and cost to component. This paper reviews the research work in the field of burr formation under milling operation. Role of various input parameters affecting burr formation such as work material, cutting tool, machining parameters, machining strategies, and miscellaneous parameters is described. Numerous researchers proposed different concepts to control the burr formation. The outcomes of the detailed study are presented in a summary sheet. Results show that burr formation in milling operation can be minimized by selecting optimum input parameters.
