High-Speed Machining (HSM) of aluminum alloys represents a critical area in manufacturing industries, including automotive, aerospace and consumer electronics. This research presents an in-depth investigation into the effects of key process parameters on the HSM of Aluminum 7075, a high-strength alloy with superior mechanical properties. Utilizing the central composite design of Response Surface Methodology (RSM), the study scrutinizes the impact of process parameters, including cutting speed, feed, depth of cut and tool nose radius on surface roughness. The findings reveal feed and nose radius as primary factors influencing surface roughness while cutting speed and depth of cut play secondary roles. This comprehensive analysis contributes to the knowledge base for efficient machining practices and lays the groundwork for future optimization strategies. It also underscores the necessity for further research into understanding the intricate dynamics of machining parameters to enhance operational efficiency and product quality in the machining of Aluminum 7075 and similar alloys.
