Analysis of Process Parameters of Plasma Arc Cutting of Stainless Steel Using Taguchi Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

Plasma Arc Machining is one of the most important non conventional machining method used in fabrication industries because of its high accuracy, ability to machine any hard material, ability to produce any intricate shape and better finish. In the present investigation, plasma arc cutting of stainless steel (316L) materials has been carried out using plasma arc cutting machine. The optimization of process has been carried out using Taguchi method of design of experiment.
