Investigation has been done to determine the optimal machining cost and time parameters for multi-pass operations with carbide tool (P-40) on cast steel material. The experiments were carried out on double column heavy duty turning and boring machine and were analyzed. The temperature, cutting force, surface roughness and tool life equations were obtained in terms of speed, feed and depth of cut. The expressions so developed were used to further optimize the numbers of tool passes to minimize the cost and time.
