Chapter 32 Effect of Cutting Parameters on Surface Finish for Three Different Materials in Dry Turning

摘要

Surface finish of the machined parts is one of the important criteria by which the success of a machining operation is judged [1]. It is also an important quality characteristic that may dominate the functional requirements of many component parts. For example, good surface finish is necessary to prevent premature fatigue failure; to improve corrosion resistance; to reduce friction, wear, and noise; and finally to improve product life. Therefore, achieving the required surface finish is critical to the success of many machining operations.
