The experimental work has revealed that different aging times at 180 degrees C and the cutting speed significantly affected the machined surface roughness values. However, cutting forces were not influenced significantly by aging and cutting speed except for SHT workpieces having the lowest hardness. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
