Abstract: Abstract This paper proposes an online evolutive procedure to optimize the Material Removal Rate in a turning process considering a stochastic constraint. The usual industrial approach in finishing operations is to change the tool insert at the end of each machining feature to avoid defective parts. Consequently, all parts are produced at highly conservative conditions (low levels of feed and speed), and therefore, at low productivity. In this work, a framework to estimate the stochastic constraint of tool wear during the production of a batch is proposed. A simulation campaign was carried out to evaluate the performances of the proposed procedure. The results showed that it was possible to improve the Material Removal Rate during the production of the batch and keeping the probability of defective parts under a desired level.
