Abstract: The nature of residual stresses caused by machining processes has been relevant to the study of component performance for decades. The concept that cutting parameters affect the magnitude and nature of residual stress is well known. In order to reduce the residual stresses on a machined surface, it is important to identify the extent of the effect of cutting conditions. This paper presents the effect of depth of cut and tool speed on milling induced residual stresses. Speed and depth of cut were varied when milling several AISI 1045 Steel specimens. Stresses were measured with the X-ray diffraction method and corroborated with mathematical modelling on an FEA software. A relationship between tool speed and residual stress, and depth of cut and residual stress was thus obtained.
