An Overview on Turning Process

Abstract

Abstract-Turning is one of the most popular convectional machining processes to remove the extra material from the rotating surfaces. In this process, a wedge shaped cutting tool penetrated toward the workpiece and removed the extra material in the form of chips. Almost all known materials can be machined by this process in different forms like external turning, internal turning, plain/cylindrical turning, step turning, taper turning, face turning etc. with selection of appropriate cutting tool for particular material. The aim of the present study is to summarize a report on the turning process including present and past research works. This paper present a brief overview on turning operation considering the different aspects and focus the future scopes of works in the same area, which is beneficial for the researches who work in the same field.

“…The basic reason of turning operation is to reduce the diameter of the object and desired surface quality. In some cases turning process become insufficient to remove undesired material in a single pass when diameter of the workpiece is much higher [1]. Instead of this, the turning process faces problem for thin and long object due to chances of bend formation.…”
