Cover Story: Open data are reshaping smart manufacturing by enabling access to diverse machining records beyond proprietary sources. This study demonstrates how turning-related open datasets can be used to extract valuable insights for process optimization. Through a comparative evaluation of ANOVA, Signal-to-Noise Ratio, and Possibility Distributions, the paper highlights how different analytical methods perform when applied to heterogeneous, uncertain datasets. The results underscore the practical value of combining statistical and fuzzy approaches to identify optimal machining conditions. By promoting interpretable, accessible, and scalable optimization, this work supports a broader shift toward data-driven manufacturing innovation. View this paper
