Comparison of the Surface Roughness according to the Workpiece Materials of Turning Operations

The turning clearance angle changes the machining characteristics. In this study, three workpiece materials, machine structural carbon steel, chrome-molybdenum steel and stainless steel, were examined. The experiments revealed how the features of selected materials changed when they were processed with machining operation. To find the surface roughness of workpiece materials, the workpiece materials, which have a higher tensile strength, showed a much better surface roughness in the surface roughness tester. Moreover, the process feed rate was compared between 0.07 mm/rev and 0.10 mm/rev. When the process feed rate was 0.07 mm/rev, the surface roughness has superior results without reference to the quality of the materials. According to this research on the turning clearance angle, the best roughness value was observed when the quality of the materials were , whereas the worst roughness was observed when quality of the materials was .
