Abstract: This study examines the machining performance of austenitic stainless steel, focusing on tool wear, surface integrity, and the optimization of machining parameters. Utilizing a controlled experimental setup, various machining parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut were systematically varied to evaluate their effects on tool wear and surface roughness. The experiments employed advanced measurement techniques to quantify tool wear and assess surface characteristics. Statistical analysis, including regression and ANOVA, was used to identify significant factors influencing machining outcomes. The results provide insights into the optimal machining conditions that minimize tool wear and enhance surface quality, offering valuable guidelines for industrial applications of austenitic stainless steel machining. This study not only fills a critical gap in the existing literature by providing a detailed analysis of the interactions between machining parameters but also suggests practical strategies for improving machining efficiency and product quality in industrial settings.
