Abstract(s)
This paper presents a study of Taguchi design application to optimize surface quality in a CNC
milling operation. Maintaining good surface quality usually involves additional manufacturing cost
or loss of productivity. The Taguchi design is an efficient and effective experimental method in
which a response variable can be optimized, given various control and/or noise factors, using
fewer resources than a factorial design. This study includes feed per tooth, cutting speed and
radial depth of cut as control factors. An orthogonal array of L9(34) was implemented and the
ANOVA analyses were carried out to identify the significant factors affecting surface roughness as
well as the determination of optimal cutting combination by seeking the best surface roughness
(response) and signal-to-noise ratio.
