The effects of cutting conditions on the cutting force in the longitudinal turning of C60E steel were experimentally investigated. During experiments, three components of cutting force were measured, the main cutting force, the feed force and the passive force. The width of cut, the thickness of cut, feed, depth of cut and tool cutting-edge angle are found to be affecting force components. The cutting force is influenced not only by cutting conditions but also the cutting edge geometry and the material of workpiece. The influence of the cutting edge geometry and the material of workpiece is not investigate.
