Abstract: The role of Surface Roughness in precision Machining is pivotal in determining the performance, longevity, and efficiency of machined components. Surface roughness, a critical factor influencing mechanical properties such as friction, wear, and fatigue, has a direct impact on material behavior during Machining. Understanding the relationship between Surface Roughness and phenomena such as accretion and deformation is essential to optimize Machining processes for high precision. This research reviews the effects of Surface Roughness on accretion, which involves the accumulation of material on the cutting tool or workpiece, and deformation, which refers to the alterations in the shape of the workpiece under stress. Accretion, influenced by the micro-texture of the machined surface, can lead to tool wear and degrade Machining efficiency, while deformation, a result of thermal and mechanical stresses during the cutting process, can compromise the dimensional accuracy of the workpiece. The paper also examines the various methods used to measure and control Surface Roughness in Machining processes such as turning, milling, and grinding. Furthermore, we explore how Surface Roughness can influence the formation of cutting forces and heat generation, contributing to the overall Machining process. The research synthesizes existing literature on the subject and identifies key areas where Surface Roughness plays a crucial role in the Machining dynamics. By integrating findings from previous research, we aim to provide an in-depth analysis of how Surface Roughness can be controlled and optimized to mitigate its adverse effects on accretion and deformation. The paper also outlines potential future research directions, emphasizing the importance of developing advanced surface measurement technologies and Machining strategies to improve precision Machining outcomes.
