Nowadays aluminum is widely used in automobile industries, aerospace industries etc., due to its high weight to
strength ratio. This project deals with optimization of cutting parameters on aluminium specimen in turning operation to
obtain maximum MRR , minimum cutting forces and minimum work piece temperature using surface response analysis. The
adequacy of the developed model is checked using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) technique. By using the mathematical model
the main and interaction effect of various process parameters on MRR, is studied. The developed model helps in selection of
proper machining parameters for the specific material and also helps in achieving the desired material removal rate.
