Wood specimens were thermally treated at 170, 190, and 210 degrees C for 2 h. Then, specimens were cut in the radial and tangential directions with three different spindle speeds (12000, 15000, and 18000 rpm) and three different feed rates (3000, 4000, and 6000 mm/min) using two different end mill tools (spiral and straight) on the CNC machine. The end mill type significantly affected the roughness values of the untreated and thermally treated specimens in both directions. Lower roughness values were found in the specimens (especially pine) machined with the straight end mill compared to those machined with the spiral end mill. Roughness generally decreased in the thermally treated specimens. However, thermal treatment temperature did not have a notable effect on roughness. As the spindle speed increased, the roughness values of all specimens decreased. In contrast, as the feed rate increased, the roughness values increased. Therefore, the end mill type, feed rate, and spindle speed were the most influential parameters on the roughness.en10.15376/biores.16.3.5133-5147info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCNC cuttingProcessing parameterRoughnessThermal treatmentWood materialMechanical-PropertiesHeat-TreatmentDensityQualityMdfSurface Roughness of Thermally Treated Wood Cut with Different Parameters in CNC Router MachineArticle16351335147WOS:000688342600025Q2
