AB The machining of titanium alloys, particularly Ti6Al4V, presents a significant challenge inmanufacturing engineering. Its high strength, low thermal conductivity and high chemical reactivitymake Ti6Al4V a hard-to-machine material. However, the machining process is critical for aerospaceand biomedical industries. The rapid wear and short lifetime of cutting tools are the main limitationsin Ti6Al4V machining, leading to a large increase in manufacturing costs and compromising thesurface quality of machined components. Faced with this problem, the texturing of cutting tools,especially through laser-based techniques, has gained considerable attention in the last decade dueto improvement of the tribological properties of textured surfaces. Laser Surface Texturing (LST)has emerged as a promising technique to improve the tribological performance of cutting tools byenabling the creation of precise surface structures. Building on prior research, this review provides acomprehensive overview of the most recent research on this topic, summarizing key findings andoutcomes from various investigations.
