Abstract

The study presented in this paper aims to provide insight into how cutting parameters, including cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut, influence feed force and form deviations during the X5CRNI18-10 shafts machining. Many experiments were carried out at two depths of cut levels (0.5mm and 1mm) to investigate the effects of cutting speed and feed on feed force, roundness, and waviness. The findings showed that increasing the depth of cut has the strongest influence on cutting force and form deviation. In parallel, higher feed affected the roundness and waviness, leading to a reduction in the surface quality due to the tool deflection and vibrations. Cutting speed had a small impact; however, it is still crucial to select cutting parameters carefully to secure a proper balance between dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and machining efficiency.
