Determination of optimal cutting parameters is one of the most important elements in any process planning of metal parts. This paper presents a multi-objective optimization technique, based on genetic algorithms, to optimize the cutting parameters in turning processes: cutting depth, feed and speed. Two conflicting objectives, tool life and operation time, are simultaneously optimized. The proposed...
