This paper focuses on providing economical methods for manufacturing of aluminum die casting inserts, for various optimized solutions developed the constraint of the existing manufacturing setup is also considered. The techniques are implemented on a die casting inserts of Honda Activa-Mission Case component which are made from hot die steel. The present optimized solution is derived for minimization of manufacturing rope length of the die casting dies to get an optimized solution at every stage of manufacturing. The implementation of the optimize techniques and the strategies are carried in three segments. Combine electrode concept and Re-born concept are the two segments which reduce the total physical operational time of the die which will ultimately leads to saving the overall manufacturing cost and increase the profit. The proposed solution opens up new avenues for similar automobile components by setting benchmark to reduce the manufacturing rope length and increase the profit.

... This residual material is commonly referred to as the Cusp height parameter. The relationship between cusp height and surface roughness is obvious, but it is not a simple linear function, and other parameters have significant effects as well [5]. Cusp height on constant-Z finishing strategy can be seen in Figure 7, its value can be calculated using the following equation [6]: ...
The machining process using a combination of steep and shallow strategy is the most widely used strategy for the finishing process on complex models that have many areas of steep walls and shallow floors. Using a single machining strategy on the entire model can lead to long machining times and poor surface finish quality. The steep and shallow strategy can efficiently detect parts of the model that have steep contours and those that have shallow contours. In other words, this strategy can analyze the model surface angle at runtime to identify and divide the machining zone based on the slope angle or commonly called the threshold angle. In this context, the selection of the threshold angle is very important when carrying out the finishing process on free-form surfaces to produce a good surface quality. This study was conducted to determine the optimum threshold angle that can produce the minimum surface roughness between steep areas and shallow areas. Threshold angles that were varied were 20°, 30° and 40°. Machining was carried out using Ballnose type cutting tools with a diameter of 6 mm. Then the stepover and stepdown is 0.1 mm for the finishing process on the surface of the propeller product made of Aluminum by using a CNC Milling machine. From the experimental results, the most optimum threshold angle is at an angle of 40° with an average roughness value in the steep area of 1.9 mm and in the shallow area of 1.3mm and a total average roughness of 1.6mm.
... The characteristics of tool path have a significant impact on machining costs [6]. Generally, even in the case of geometries with free-form surfaces, constant Z-level (2.5D) strategies are used in rough milling [7,8]. There are two basic tool path strategies for conventional 2.5D operations: directionparallel and contour-parallel strategies [9]. ...
In the case of 2.5D rough milling operations, machining efficiency can significantly be increased by providing a uniform tool load. This is underpinned by the fact that uniform load has a positive effect on both tool life and machining time. Unfortunately, conventional contour-parallel tool paths are unable to guarantee uniform tool loads. However, nowadays there are some advanced path generation methods which can offer a constant tool load by controlling the cutter engagement angle. Yet, the spread of these non-equidistant offsetting methods is hindered by their dependence on complex calculations. As a solution to this problem, the Fast Constant Engagement Offsetting Method (FACEOM), developed in the scope of our previous study, is seen to be taking a step towards reducing computational needs. In this paper, suggestions for further improvements of FACEOM are presented. Decreasing the number of path points to be calculated is made possible by implementing adaptive step size and spline interpolation. Through simulation tests, it was also analysed which of the numerical methods utilized for solving boundary value problems can be applied to obtain the shortest calculation time during tool path generation. The practical applicability of the algorithm has been proved by cutting experiments. With respect to research results, this paper also describes how a tool path created by the algorithm can be adapted to controllers of CNC machine tools. Solutions presented in this paper can promote a wider application of a modern path generation method that ensures constant tool loads.
