The laser beam machining uses the effects generated at the impact of the workpiece surface with a laser beam that has adequate energetically and spatial - temporal characteristics. It is known that, as result of the laser beam impact with the workpiece material, local chemical and physical effects are signalized. In order to study such effects and simultaneously the technological possibilities of laser beam equipment, some experimental researches were developed on an Ytterbium fiber laser equipment of 300 W. Movements of the laser spot along established trajectories were ensured, changing the sizes of the machining parameters. The influence exerted by the machining parameters and by the materials characteristics on the material removal from the test piece was highlighted. The surface layer modifications were also studied.

One of the most important issues in turning operations is to choose suitable parameters in order to achieve a desired surface finish. The surface finish in machining operation depends on many parameters such as workpiece material, tool material, tool coating, machining parameters, etc. The purpose of this research is to focus on the analysis of optimum cutting parameters to get the lowest surface roughness in turning Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V with the insert with the standard code DNMG 110404 under dry cutting condition, by the Taguchi method. The turning parameters are evaluated as cutting speed of 14, 20 and 28 m/min, feed rate of 0.12, 0.14 and 0.16 mm/rev, depth of cut of 0.3, 0.6 and 1 mm, each at three levels. The Experiment was designed using the Taguchi method and 9 experiments were conducted by this process. The results are analyzed using analysis of variance method (ANOVA). The results of analysis show that the depth of cut has a significant role to play in producing lower surface roughness that is about 63.33% followed by feed rate about 30.25%, and cutting speed has less contribution on the surface roughness. Also it was realized that with the use of the confirmation test, the surface roughness improved by 227% from its initial state.

This paper concerns on drillability of Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-6Mo (Ti-6246) from the point view of thrust force (Fz) & torque (Mz) using a TiAlN CVD coated carbide tool. The condition of the material was varied with three different heat treatments. Whereas, the machining parameters were varied in cutting speed, feed rate and cooling application method. Taguchi method L-18 was employed to design the experiments. Both type of forces, thrust force and torque, were measured using a Kistler dynamometer, and the data were analyzed using a Minitab 17 software. The thrust force was influenced by the cutting speed 24%, depth of drilling 21%, heat treatment 13%, and feed rate 11%. The torque was influenced predominantly by feed rate up to 94%. Coolant application has no effect on reducing both thrust force as well as torque.
