Study of the cutting process parameters that influence the surface quality machined by end milling of the aluminum alloy

This research aims to carry out an elaborate experiment by witch resulting in relevant conclusions that have practical applicability in the aeronautical industry. The surface roughness measured transversely and longitudinally on the feed motion direction of the cutting tool constitutes the dedicated objective function on which the study was conducted in this case. The end milling was chosen of an aluminum alloy used explicitly in the aeronautical industry. The actual experiments were carried out in the only aeronautical industry in Romania carrying out these types of machining and were made according to the methodology with rigorous experimental planning of the research. The experimental plan conceived after which the practical experiments were conducted led to applied research already put into practice within the above-mentioned industrial organization
