Ultrasonic Assisted Milling (UAM) offers an effective means to both increase productivity and decrease tool wear. In this review, UAM for milling Inconel 718 will be discussed along with its principles and effects. Factors affecting machining performance such as spindle speed, ultrasonic amplitude, tool geometry, and fluid usage, such as ultrasonic amplitude modulated parameters, are examined and optimized accordingly. This review investigates the effects of ultrasonic vibration on cutting force, tool wear, and surface roughness, as well as methods for monitoring and controlling the (UAM) process. Ultimately, this investigation explores its potential application to machining Inconel 718 with (UAM), providing insights for improved performance as well as wider industrial applications. © 2024, Malaysian Tribology Society (Mytribos).
