Abstract: Machine components in the industry are manufactured with variety of machining operations. Each machining operation performs with respect to the applications of the component. For example, power transmitting shafts undergo the turning operation during the manufacturing process. While the shaft in the working condition will undergo the fluctuating load stresses on its surface. To withstand that fluctuating loads and to attain a long life of the shaft, the surface roughness is the major factor that plays the main character. The surface roughness of the shaft depends on the cutting parameters while in the machining process. In this present work, the specimens of the medium carbon steel are machined in CNC by varying different cutting parameters. The machined specimen surface roughness was calibrated with surface roughness tester. The fatigue analysis of the different roughness specimens was performed on the BISS Nano 25KN UTM. Finally, the work was concluded by analyzing which cutting parameter conditions are better to sustain the fluctuating loads and to attain better fatigue life by the component.
