Optimization of turning parameters for surface roughness
In this paper, Taguchi Design is used to identify the optimal combination of turning parameters to minimize the surface roughness. Turning experiments are carried out according to Taguchi orthogonal array L9 for various combinations of four parameters: cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and nose radius. For each experiment run, the surface roughness Ra is measured, recorded and analyzed using Taguchi S/N ratios. To confirm the effectiveness of the Taguchi optimization, confirmation test and regression model are used.
