In this study, optimum machining parameters are evaluated for enhancing the surface roughness and hardness of AZ91 alloy using Taguchi design of experiments with Grey Relational Analysis. Dry face milling is performed using cutting conditions determined using Taguchi L9 design and Grey Relational Analysis has been used for the optimization of multiple objectives. Taguchi’s signal-to-noise ratio analysis is also performed individually for both characteristics and grey relational grade to identify the most influential machining parameter affecting them. Further, Analysis of Variance is carried to see the contribution of factors on both surface roughness and hardness. Finally, the predicted trends obtained from the signal-to-noise ratio are validated using confirmation experiments. The study showed the effectiveness of Taguchi design combined with Grey Relational Analysis for the multi-objective problems such as surface characteristics studies.

Automotive shafts require maximum strength with regard to axial, bending and torsional loading to transmit power to various parts of a vehicle. Hence, it is very critical to analyse the manufacturing process and its governing parameters to exercise control over the surface properties of the shaft as it needs to be precisely manufactured in terms of dimensions and the surface roughness. The effect of three input parameters over two responses are considered as two major criteria's for production of shaft. The input parameters are speed, feed and depth of cut whereas the responses are material removal rate and surface roughness. Central Composite design was used and experimental results were analysed with Response Surface Methodology. ANOVA analysis was carried out to identify the most contributing parameter for MRR and SR. Grey Relational Analysis was adopted to identify the most feasible combination of machining parameters for turning process. The optimized parameter is identified as speed of 1000 rpm, 0.15 mm of feed and 0.35 mm of depth of cut using Grey Relational Analysis.

Optimasi parameter adalah teknik yang digunakan pada proses manufaktur untuk menghasilkan produk terbaik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengoptimasi parameter CNC laser cutting, yaitu titik fokus sinar laser, tekanan gas cutting dan cutting speed untuk mengurangi variasi terhadap respon kekasaran dan laju pemotongan pada material SUS 316L. Masing-masing parameter memiliki 3 level dan pada penelitian ini menggunakan matriks orthogonal L9 (34). Metode ANOVA dan Taguchi digunakan untuk menganalisis data hasil percobaan. Optimasi kekasaran minimum permukaan dan laju pemotongan maksimum pada proses laser cutting dilakukan dengan menggunakan Grey relational analysis. Eksperimen konfirmasi digunakan untuk membuktikan hasil optimal yang telah didapatkan dari metode Taguchi Grey relational analysis. Hasil eksperimen menunjukkan bahwa Taguchi Grey relational analysis efektif digunakan untuk mengoptimasi parameter pemesinan pada laser cutting dengan multi respon. AbstractParameter optimization is used in manufacturing as an indicator to produce the best manufacturing product. This paper studies an optimization parameters of CNC laser cutting such as focus of laser beam, pressure cutting gases and cutting speed for reducing variation of surface roughness and cutting rate on material SUS 316L. Based on L9(34) orthogonal array parameters, it is analized using ANOVA based on Taguchi method. In order to optimaze the minimum surface roughness and maximum cutting rate in laser cutting process, it is used Grey relational analysis. The confirmation experiments used to validate the optimal results that has done by Taguchi method. The results show that the Taguchi Grey relational analysis is being effective to optimize the machining parameters for laser cutting process with two responses.

Due to the excellent characteristics of titanium alloy, was applied to aviation, marine, automotive, metallurgy, medical equipment and other fields. However, some of the characteristics make it machine difficultly, so the range of applications would be limited. In this paper, titanium alloy is cut by wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) and study the surface finish. The model of surface roughness is established which is based on theoretical analysis. Experimental results were analyzed and optimized by the theory of signal-to-noise ratio and grey relational analysis (GRA) method. The minimal surface roughness is achieved by the optimal results .According to GRA, get the order that is the influence of electric parameters on the surface roughness.

AbstractSurface roughness and heat-affected zone (HAZ) are the important features which influence the performance of the laser-drilled products. Understanding the influence of laser process parameters on these responses and identifying the cutting conditions for simultaneous optimization of these responses are a primary requirement in order to improve the laser drilling performance. Nevertheless, no such contribution has been made in the literature during laser drilling of AISI 303 material. The aim of the present work is to optimize the surface roughness (Ra) and HAZ in fibre laser drilling of AISI 303 material using Taguchi-based grey relational analysis (GRA). From the GRA methodology, the recommended optimum combination of process parameters is flushing pressure at 30 Pa, laser power at 2000 W and pulse frequency at 1500 Hz for simultaneous optimization of Ra and HAZ, respectively. From analysis of variance, the pulse frequency is identified as the most influenced process parameters on laser drilling process performance.
