The purpose of this research is to investigate different milling parameters for optimization to achieve the maximum rate of material removal with the minimum tool wear and surface roughness. In this study, a tool wear factor is specified to investigate tool wear parameters and the amount of material removed during machining, simultaneously. The second output parameter is surface roughness. The DOE technique is used to design the experiments and applied to the milling machine. The practical data is used to develop different mathematical models. In addition, a single-objective genetic algorithm (GA) is applied to numerate the optimal hyperparameters of the proposed adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) to achieve the best possible efficiency. Afterwards, the multi-objective GA is employed to extract the optimum cutting parameters to reach the specified tool wear and the least surface roughness. The proposed method is developed under MATLAB using the practically extracted dataset and neural network. The optimization results revealed that optimum values for feed rate, cutting speed, and depth of cut vary from 252.6 to 256.9 (m/min), 0.1005 to 0.1431 (mm/rev tooth), and from 1.2735 to 1.3108 (mm), respectively.
