Hard material machining is always a challenging area for manufacturing sectors. There are various hard materials utilized in the manufacturing of various parts. Titanium alloy, nickel-based superalloy and tool steel are also very hard metals and used in the various industrial applications [1-4]. Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in earth's crust. It is a low-density element whose strength can be increased significantly. The strength can increase by alloying and deformation processes [5-9]. Titanium and its alloy have a very good strength to density property which makes the titanium alloy exceptional use. These properties are mechanical properties, high fatigue strength, biocompatible, erosion and corrosion therefore titanium and its alloy have a large number of applications. Its widely used in aerospace application like an aircraft engine, missiles etc. it is also used in petroleum and chemical production. It has got an important role in food and pharmaceuticals processing. Various sports equipment and power generation types of equipment are made of Titanium and its alloy [10-11].
Inconel-718 is the heat resistant super alloy and extensively used in the manufacturing of component for liquid rockets, part of aircraft, turbine engine, cryogenic tankage etc. [12-15]. Inconel-718 is mainly used because it sustained high resistance to corrosion, mechanical and thermal shock, mechanical and thermal fatigue. Inconel is the member of nickel chromium-based super alloy and are well suited in an extreme environment subjected to pressure and heat. When we heat Inconel material, it forms a thick stable oxide layer protecting the surface from further attack [16-18]. Inconel maintain strength over a wide temperature range, attractive for high temperature and applications. In Inconel, the high-temperature strength is developed by a solid solution. Inconel alloy is used in high-temperature applications like nuclear reactors, gas turbine engine parts etc. The space shuttle used four Income studs to secure the solid rocket boosters. It is also used in the engine manifold. Inconel is used in the automotive industry. Inconel-718 has excellent welding characteristics and post-weld age cracking resistance [19, 20].
Tool steel is used in the shaping of other materials. The carbon content in tool steel is lying between 0.5% and 1.5%. To maintain the quality, tool steel is manufactured under very controlled condition. The existence of carbides in their matrix having an important role in ensuring the quality of tool steel. Mainly, tool steels categorized into six groups: shock-resistant high speed, water hardening, cold work, hot work and special purpose. Tool steels are used for the many industrial applications for example in cutting operations, pressing and coining of metals and other materials [21]. Tool steel contains various elements such as tungsten, molybdenum, cobalt and vanadium to increase the heat resistant and durability of the material. Tool steel is ideal for cutting and drilling. Various tool steel is carbon steel, alloy steel and high-speed steel is capable of being quenched. Tool steels are melted in electric arc furnaces and produced by using certain practices to satisfy particular specification [22]. It has a very special heat treatment characteristics and manufacturing considerations. In comparison tool steel is offers much better performance than tonnage steel. Tool steel is a member of steel that contain dispersed carbides in the hardened steel matrix. For welding purpose, aluminum alloys tool steel is most widely used. Tool steel is necessary materials in industrial fields and are used for cutting tools, dies, mould etc. Tool steel is a hybrid between a cemented carbide and steel [23-25].
Surface roughness is a parameter which indicates the condition of the machined surface. The quality of the surface is defined as the surface roughness. Various methods are available to measure surface roughness. In this work, linear roughness measurement is done experimentally. In linear roughness measurement, a single line on the sample surface measure has been done. Basically surface roughness is measured by the deviation of the normal vector of a real surface from its ideal form. If the deviation is measuring large then the surface is found to be rough whereas if the deviation is small the surface is considered as smooth. The roughness of any material determines how an object will interact with its environment.
From the literature, it was observed that very few researchers compared the machining behavior of titanium alloy and nickel-based superalloy with tool steel. Keeping these facts in the mind, in the present investigation, a comparative study of the machining behavior of titanium alloy and nickel-based superalloy with tool steel has been carried out.

2.2 Machining of samples
Machining of Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) on CNC machine was done with the consideration of four important characteristics like strength, thermal conductivity, modulus of elasticity and shear mechanism. Since titanium alloys consist of a mixture of titanium and other chemical elements and have a very high tensile strength and toughness properties even at extreme temperature. During machining operation on the CNC machine, a lot of effort was required for deforming Ti6AI-4V into chips. It was observed that much energy consumed by the spindle into and converted heat. It was also noticed that during the machining operation due to high modulus of elasticity and shearing mechanism characteristics of titanium Alloy sharp with aggressive rake angle and high relief angle were used to avoid tearing and dispersion of the titanium workpiece. As the Ti-6Al-4V has low thermal conductivity so limited cutting speed was used. To protect the tool and workpiece a large volume of coolant at high pressure was required just because of high energy was created during machining of the samples. In order to improve machinability LN2 coolant was used. While machining Ti-6Al-4V the cutting speed was limited to 60m/min because increasing the cutting speed will also reduce the cutting tool life. As the turning of titanium alloy is a little bit difficult therefore carbide tool was used for achieving good surface finish and tool life. After machining, the next sample was introduced with different parameters and the same procedure continues.
2.3 Surface Roughness and its measurement
In the present work, the surface roughness of the samples is measured by the contact profilometer. In this method, a profilometer with a diamond stylus is progressed vertically in continuous contact with a sample and then it moved laterally across the sample for a specified distance and specified contact force to measure a small variation in the surface of the sample. The diamond stylus first generates an analogue signal which is further converted into a digital signal. This signal can be stored, analyzed and displayed for precise surface roughness measurement. The radius of the diamond stylus of the profilometer ranges from 20 nanometers to 50 micrometres.
For the target surfaces that have periodic roughness profile estimated parameter from the measured primary profile but when the roughness profile is not periodic, unknown parameters were estimated like average roughness (Ra), Root-mean-square roughness (Rz or RMS) from the measured primary profile. After this visual inspection is used to determine whether the target’s surface texture is uniform or different in various locations. When the target surface texture is uniform then judged whether the parameters are within the permissible ranges and if the target surface texture is different in various location then also judged whether the parameter is within the permissible ranges. The testing machine was digital type in which the analogue signal was converted to a digital signal. Twelve different samples identified on which roughness testing was to be done. The operator took a sample and placed it on the machine where the automatic stylus moved along the longitudinal axis on the surface of the workpiece. Computer-generated slip with all details (Ra, Rzetc) and graph are presented in Figures 2 (a), (b) and (c). This procedure was repeated for all the samples.

3.1 Machining results of Ti-6Al-4V
In machining operations, the MRR and surface roughness are an important consideration to measure the quality of the machining and economy. In the first experiment, Ti-6Al-4V was machined and the measured value of MRR and surface roughness are shown in the design matrix in Table 4. Some parameters were fixed in the first step such as cutting speed of 200 rpm, 0.15 mm feed and 0.2mm depth of cut. Table 4 shows the MRR and surface roughness of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The operation was held for 17 seconds. The result of MRR was 0.01529 g/sec and surface roughness was measured Ra=1.347micron and Rz=6.538 micrometre. In the second step the machining parameters were changed, the cutting speed was taken 200 rpm, feed 0.25mm/rev and 0.04mm depth of cut. On these parameters, the operation was performed on Ti-6Al-4v. The time was taken for 12 seconds. The MRR was 0.08583 g/sec and surface roughness was Ra=1.551 and Rz=8.227 micrometre. In the third step, the parameters were changed by 300 rpm speed, 0.25mm/rev feed and 0.2mm depth of cut. The Ti-6Al-4V was operated; the cutting time was taken for 11 seconds and the MRR was recorded as 0.0218g/sec. The surface roughness was found Ra=0.835 micrometre and Rz=4.910 micrometre. In the fourth step, the parameters were changed by 300 rpm speed, 0.15mm/rev feed and 0.4mm depth of cut. The cutting time was taken for 12 seconds. The MRR was 0.09307g/sec. The surface roughness Ra=1.096micrometer and Rz= 4.226 micrometre. Since, the shear hardening and excessive shear localization occurred due to the phase transformation of the titanium structure therefore, Material strain-hardening capacity will be reduced due to low thermal conductivity. During machining of Ti alloy chip morphology considerably influenced by cutting speed and feed. The material removal rate of Ti-6Al-4V has increased by the increment of speed and feed rate. Whereas, it was observed that the surface roughness has decreased. Figure 3 shows the SEM image and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDAX) Pattern of Ti-6Al-4V at speed 200 rpm, 0.15 mm feed and 0.2mm depth of cut. Surface roughness trends were observed in the SEM test. At high speed, comparatively fair results were observed.

In the second stage, the parameters were changed by 200rpm speed, 0.25 feed rate and depth of cut were taken as 0.4mm. On this parameter, the time was taken 11 seconds. The MRR was 0.24909g/sec and the surface roughness Ra=4.512 micrometre and Rz= 13.464 micrometre.
Figure 4. INCONEL-718 SEM Image and EDAX Pattern
On the same parameter, the Inconel-718 was machined. The time cutting was taken for 11 seconds. The MRR was observed 0.07727g/sec and surface roughness Ra=1.673 micrometre and Rz = 8.55 micrometre. In the third stage, the parameters were changed by 300 rpm speed, 0.25 feed rate and depth of cut were taken as 0.2mm. On these parameters, the Inconel-718 was operated and the time was taken for 14 seconds. The MRR was 0.07727g/sec and the surface roughness was Ra=1.673micrometer and Rz= 8.558 micrometre. In the fourth stage, the parameters were changed by 300 rpm speed, 0.15 feed rate and depth of cut were taken as 0.4mm. The MRR was 0.17727g/sec and the surface roughness was Ra=1.810micrometer and Rz= 11.216 micrometre. From the experimental results, it is recorded that if cutting speed increases the cutting forces are decreases. Due to less heat dissipation, the temperature generation is high at high cutting speed. Whereas, the cutting forces increase with an increase in feed rate. The material removal rate of Inconel-718 has decreased by the increment of speed and feed rate. Whereas, it was observed that the surface roughness has significantly decreased. Figure 4 shows the SEM image and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDAX) Pattern of Inconel-718 at speed 200 rpm, 0.15 mm feed and 0.2mm depth of cut. Surface roughness trends were observed in the SEM test.

From the results generated, it tends to be presumed that since the hardness of titanium alloy is high hence, it is difficult to machine as compare to INCONEL-718 and Tool steel. At 200 rpm, 0.15 feed, 0.2mm depth of cut MRR and surface roughness of titanium was estimated as 0.01529 g/sec and Ra=1.347 micrometre, Rz=6.348micrometer. For the machining of INCONEL-718, MRR was estimated as 0.04222 g/sec and surface roughness Ra= 0.0422 micrometre and Rz=3.146 micrometre. For the machining of Tool steel MRR was estimated as 0.11735 g/sec and surface roughness Ra= 1.82 micrometre and Rz=8.099. When the speed increases, the surface roughness of the titanium is increased rapidly as compared to the Inconel-718 and Tool steel. It was observed that the surface roughness of Inconel-718 and tool steel increased by increasing the feed rate and depth of cut. But for Titanium it was decreased. MRR is strictly depended upon speed, feed and depth of cut. However, MRR increases with speed, feed and depth of cut. From the results, it was also noticed that MRR highly increases of Tool steel than Inconel-718. SEM results of Ti-6Al-4V, INCONEL-718, and Tool steel showed no cracking within graded regions. It was examined that the surface finish of Ti-6Al-4V is much better than INCONEL-718 and Tool steel even after changing the machining parameters.
