This literature review explores the impact of cutting parameters specifically cutting speed, feed rate (FR), & depth of cut (DOC) on surface roughness as well as cutting force in the turning of mild steel on conventional Lathe machines. These factors are critical in optimizing machining quality, efficiency, and tool life in industrial manufacturing. The study employs the Taguchi technique to examine variations and enhance the quality of manufactured products and engineering designs. The review examines recent studies to understand how each parameter influences surface finish and cutting force independently, as well as the interactions between parameters that often yield complex effects on machining outcomes. Cutting speed depends on material & cutting conditions, although FR & DOC always impact surface roughness as well as cutting force. In several reviews, signal-to-noise ratio was employed to analyze turning operation performance; Additionally, this paper discusses the measurement techniques and the use of statistical and computational models including ANOVA (Analysis of Variance), RSM (Response Surface Methodology), & DOE (Design of Experiments) in analyzing and predicting optimal cutting conditions. Identified gaps in the current literature include limited parameter ranges, lack of comprehensive interaction studies, and limited exploration of advanced tool materials and lubricants. This review concludes by recommending future research to address these gaps, intending to improve machining performance and efficiency through optimized parameter selection.
