Abstract—In manufacturing industries, metal machining is very important process due to the competitiveness. Every manufacturer needs quick, effective and optimized processes. The experience of the operator plays a major role, but even for a skilled operator it is very difficult to attain the optimum values each time. Sustainability Analysis has attracted growing interests from industry, as an optimum cost estimation system analysis method, and energy consumption progress has been achieved. In this work, scrap production as well as production lead time have to be reduced and machining cost per kg of material is target. To reduce the cost, energy consumption and material wastage impact of the milling process worldwide many aspects of the process are investigated. In the present work, a system has been proposed, which can be used to determine various components of Sustainability analysis of milling process.
Index Terms—Sustainability analysis, milling process, energy consumption, metal machining.
