Abstract
Quartz is one of the highly demanded advanced ceramics and has been attracting increasing attention for industrial applications owing to its excellent properties. However, significant challenges are yet to be addressed to improve the processing. In this study, rotary ultrasonic side milling (RUSM) was employed to machine a quartz material. The response surface methodology with a Box–Behnken design was used to design the experiments. The optimal parameters of the RUSM included a spindle speed of 4000 rpm, feed rate of 50 mm/min, depth of cut value of 0.309 mm, and ultrasonic power of 75.45%. The minimum surface roughness, maximum material removal rate, and minimum cutting force were 0.968 µm, 2.32 mm3/s, and 3.608 N, respectively. The microstructures of the tool samples and quartz surface were also evaluated using a microscope. The analysis confirmed that the surface quality of the ultrasonically machined tools and machined quartz improved.
