Aerospace components use AMS 5643 stainless steel as a raw material. Material toughness and hardness are challenges in the roughing machining process on CNC lathes. We designed experiments combining Taguchi-Response Surface Method to optimize multi-response: cycle time, material removal rate, and cutting power. This study uses CAM Espirit TNG and Celos Tech software simulations as an experimental approach. Confirmation test results show that changing process parameters in simulation software is able to produce a response that is close to reality. This research succeeded in identifying the contribution of machining process factors and finding parameters with optimal multi-response.
