Popis: Experiments are performed on Al5083 metal matrix composite reinforcement of 7%B4C. The turning process is carried out by using HSS single point cutting tool under the dry condition. In the present experiment the turning parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut are being optimized by considering constant length of material being machined. In the metal cutting process the proper cutting parameter will affect the quality of the finished product, In Ex-situ form B4C particle used for reinforcing the material. The reinforced aluminium matrix composites have some special properties which make them use for various purposes. The presence of B4C particle in Al matrix makes them difficult in machining, for the achieving of industrial requirement. The influence of B4C particle in Al5083 was studied experimentally and optimal machining condition is studied in this experiment. In this present study, the BA, ABC and PSO algorithm is applied to determine the optimal parametric combinations and compare between them for achieving better and higher machining performance and it is observed that the among, PSO algorithm gives better results.
