Abstract
The aim of the work is to critically compare the productivity and tool life enhancement by considering the
interrelationships among microstructures, and tool-wear of Titanium alloys and Inconel 718 super alloy. Effects of
different tool grades on machining of these alloys are conferred. Tool wear and surface integrity effects when machining
these alloys by the geometrically defined tools are analyzed effectively. Different techniques for improving tool
performance are discussed thoroughly. This comparison aims to supplement and synergize the existing vast knowledge of
the machining of aerospace alloys. At the end, possible future work has been anticipated.
