Abstract :Machine tools are required to be able to produce workpieces according to the desired technical requirements. The goal of machining is to achieve a high production volume of good quality with maximum tool life, short production time, and low cost. The surface properties obtained as a result of the changing and developing technology in cutting processes, the introduction to manufacturing, and especially the post-processing processes are of great importance. While the time obtained as a result of fast cuts has economic value, high-quality surface obtaining provides cost savings by minimizing the subsequent machining operations. Within the scope of the study, Ø120 mm ST-52 and Ø120 mm AISI 4140 materials have been cut with smart and automatic cutting modes by our domestic band saw machine. As a result of the cuts, the roughness values and curvatures of the samples have been checked with the surface roughness device and surface gauge. While the surface roughness after cutting was 4.45 µm with the automatic cutting mode, this value decreased by 16% to 3.71 µm with the smart cutting mode.
