    Abstract In a research project, committed by industrial partners, a new method for the study of machining, particularly adapted to precious metals, was developed. The method is based on both the identification of minimum specific energy and the minimisation of machining costs. The kinds of machining considered in our study are milling and drilling. Nevertheless, the methodology can be adopted for the study of any form of machining by chip removal. The method involves the utilisation of some new software packages especially developed: a mechanistic model for the prediction of forces, specific energies and algorithms enabling research for economical optimisation
