This paper investigates the influence of tool nose radius on the residual stress distribution developed in Inconel 718 by finish turning. Although previous studies have shown that changes in rake angle, cutting edge geometry and nose radius can affect the tool performance and resulting workpiece surface integrity, no systematic study examining nose radius has been performed. Cutting force, microstructural alteration and residual stress distribution have been analysed for machining trials examining 2, 3, 4 and 6 mm radius tools at various feed rates and in both the new and worn tool condition. In general the results show that an increase in tool nose radius results in; increased radial cutting forces, increased microstructural deformation depth, higher near surface tensile stresses (up to 1550 MPa with a worn tool), and deeper tensile and compressive residual stress distribution.
