The major concern identified with machining of Nickel based alloys which are considered very hard for machining purpose is surface property and tool wear. The major problem faced by any industry is to obtain the optimal machining input parameters and minimize the surface roughness(Ra) and tool wear(Tw) of a super alloy. In present work impact of cutting conditions (cutting speed V, feed rate f, depth of cut d) on output parameters (i.e. Ra, Tw) has been studied during turning of Incoloy 825 while machining it with CVD Coated Tungsten Carbide Insert. Machining parameters are optimized by RSM based BBD Technique, using the desirability analysis for minimizing the surface roughness(Ra), and tool wear(Tw). The study indicated that the optimal parameters for Multi Response Optimization were found to be at cutting speed(V) 69 m/min, feed rate(f) 0.072rev/min and depth of cut(d) 0.2 mm.
