This research investigation has been carried out in Computer Numerical Control (CNC) turning of 40–50 Hardness Rockwell C (HRC) hardened high chromium high carbon steel (HCHCR-D3) specimen for the findings of surface roughness (Ra) and the tool wear. The HCHCR-D3 steel, which has excellent abrasion and wear resistance, is machined with the physical vapor deposition (PVD) coated carbide (CNMG) turning insert nomenclature based on shape, clearance angle, tolerance and type of tool inserts. The coatings preferred are Titanium Nitrate (TiN), Aluminium Chromium Nitrate (AlCrN) and Latuma for the coating thickness of 3–4μm. The varying input parameters of speed and depth of cut under constant feed rate are used as machining parameters for this CNC turning operation. The machined surface characterization and tool wear have been investigated analytically in this manuscript along with the predicted results of effective stresses and temperatures under dynamic cutting conditions in Deform 3D can be related. The outcomes indicate that the depth of cut and the hardening effect (HRC) are the major influencing parameter on surface roughness. Less tool wear and machining time are obtained by the usage of coated CNMG tool insert for high-speed cutting conditions which results in minimization of wear interruption and growth in surface improvements.

Thin-walled aluminium parts are employed in a variety of industries, including construction and aerospace. If they are treated to a greater quantity of milling, they are more resistant to deformation. As a result, the stability of the work parts degrades, and the surface roughness increases as a result of this factor. This work proposes the use of a well-designed fixture with support heads to lessen the deformation produced by square thin-walled aluminium plate milling. The suggested fixture system's support heads are comprised of high-carbon steel. The milling experiment is carried out in a CNC Machining centre under machining settings similar to DEFORM 3D-Simulation. The experimental results are validated by measuring surface roughness with the SURFTEST SJ-210 portable Surface Roughness tester in two scenarios: without and with fixtures used during the milling operation. As a result of employing this fixture with support heads to reduce deformation, surface roughness values are reduced by a minimum of 3% to a maximum of 19%. As a result, it has been demonstrated that the proposed fixture with support head may be used to reduce distortion in thin-walled aluminium plates
