Abstract


The quality of a finished part is an important aspect of any manufacturing process. It directly relates to the productivity of the process, which is a result of combination of many processing factors such as process parameters, work piece material, machine tool condition, cutting conditions, cutting tool condition and cutting tool setting. In context with this, an effort has been made to analyze the influence of process parameters and tool setting on surface roughness of turned part. In the present study, mild steel material was machined with different combinations of process parameter and tool setting by following the Taguchi L9 orthogonal array design of experiments approach. The surface roughness of the turned work piece was measured for every experimental trial. The effect of tool setting was derived with the help of analysis of variance tool. The investigation reveals that the feed rate and tool setting have more influence on surface roughness.
