The following article will therefore focus on researching results of the roughness of treated surface depending on the cutting parameters characterized to the up milling process. In order to find the most suitable empiric model to describe the depending character of the roughness of treated surface the following elements have been taken into consideration: cutting speed, the depth of cut and a feedrate. The experiment with the material 2011(AlCuPbBi) has been conducted and the central composite design of the second degree has been applied. Given results determined by regression analysis led to the empiric equation that is used for the purpose of the calculation of the average arithmetic roughness. 1. INTRODUCTION Production of technical surfaces of the machine components is realized either by the method of chips forming machining or the one without metal removal. During the machining and the usage of machine parts the given surfaces are exposed to the effect of the various kinds of burdening. The most important ones are mechanical and chemical burdening that result with dilapidation of parts and corrosion. Microscopically observed, technical surfaces are not geometrical level surfaces with the ideal smoothness but rather rough level surfaces characterized by series of uneven spots of different forms and disposition. The dimension of the surface roughness can affect the following elements: the decrease of dynamic endurance, intensified friction and dilapidation of the
