In the current manufacturing industries, cost of the product is most important parameter and there are too
many parameters that effects such as tool Life, Production of the component, Product quality , etc. From all above
parameter, tool life directly effects on the product quality and productivity of the product. Tool life is a number of
products machined between the two grinding of the cutting tool; we have determined the tool life by the method of design
of experiment. In this paper, various cutting parameter as cutting speed, depth of cut and feed rate of the cutting tool has
been taken into the account along with two different conditions as dry and wet coolant conditions and the material of the
product are changed as Aluminium alloy, EN-9 and EN-31. Then the observed data has been studied on the Minitab
software to develop the equation based on the material parameter.
