Abstract

The present work investigates the optimum machining parameters while turning EN 8 steel by employing hybrid Grey relational analysis (GRA) and principal component analysis (PCA) techniques. Experiments were designed based on the central composite design (CCD) of the Response surface method (RSM). Experiments were conducted by varying machining parameters such as cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut. In this study, the surface roughness and the material removal rate (MRR) are measured during the experimentation. To determine the influence of cutting parameters, an Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was deployed. The optimal turning parameters are found to be speed 1170 rpm, feed 0.225 mm/rev, and depth of cut 1.238 mm. The results revealed that the optimization through hybrid GRA-PCA enhanced the output quality characteristics.
