Abstract: The machinability of a cutting tool merely depends on cutting temperature, surface finish, and tool life, etc. To investigate the machinability of non-textured plain cutting inserts and micro-textured cutting inserts, various novel micro-textures have been fabricated using a femtosecond laser machine on the rack face of the double-sided square cutting insert without amputating its TiCN coating. The turning operation has been performed on a Titanium Gr 2 rod of diameter 50 mm on a three-jaw self-centered lathe machine. Type of insert, rotational speed, and cutting feed rate are the main parameters with various levels. L27 orthogonal array has been used for the design of experiments. Significant reduction in cutting tool temperature and surface roughness has been observed using micro-textured cutting inserts. The cutting insert with Honeycomb micro-texture gives superior results with a minimum cutting temperature of 210∘ C and a maximum of 76% improvement in surface finish.
