Abstract
This research article is aiming to comprehend the cause of Abrasive Water Jet Machining (AWJM) parameter on kerf angle of the polymer based composites. Direct extrusion method is adopted to fabricate the Nylon 6 – GFRP composites. L27 OA design is followed to carry out to study the behaviour of AWJM parameter Kerf Angle (Ka). Three parameters with three levels are formulated; the selected parameters are pressure of the jet, standoff distance and feed rate and output is Ka. Taguchi optimization tool is used to locate the optimal combination of the AWJM parameter. The maximum pressure, low feed rate and standoff distance are the beneficial for reducing the kerf angle. ANOVA is also employed to determine the contribution of each process parameter on kerf angle and it is found that pressure combined with standoff distance plays important role in reducing the Ka followed by standoff distance and feed rate.
