Adithya Hegde, Raviraj Shetty, Gururaj Bolar, V Balaji

TL;DR
This paper uses deep learning and optimization techniques to improve laser beam machining of XG3 steel, focusing on parameters that affect surface quality and machining efficiency.
Contribution
The novel use of BPANN for predictive modeling and MOGA for multi-objective optimization in laser machining of XG3 steel.
Findings
Cutting speed was the most dominant factor affecting surface roughness, machining time, surface hardness, and burr thickness.
BPANN outperformed RSM with high accuracy (R > 0.999) and low MAPE for predicting surface roughness and hardness.
Multi-objective optimization using MOGA provided balanced trade-off solutions for circular hole profiles.
Abstract
LASER Beam Machining (LBM) has emerged as a highly precise and non-contact thermal machining process, widely adopted for cutting complex geometries in advanced engineering materials. Its ability to machine difficult-to-cut alloys with minimal mechanical stress makes it particularly suitable for aerospace and defense components. This paper presents an experimental investigation and multi-objective optimization of LASER Beam Machining (LBM) for XG3 steel, a high-performance alloy used in aerospace and defense applications. The study evaluates the impact of four process parameters i.e. cutting speed (8, 10, 12 m/min), gas pressure (0.5, 0.7, 0.9 Bar), focus point (2, 4, 6 mm), and depth of cut (3, 6, 9 mm) on four output responses: surface roughness, machining time, surface hardness, and burr thickness. Experiments were conducted using a Taguchi L27 orthogonal array on three distinct hole…
