Abstract

This paper presents Taguchi optimization of bevel angle in plasma jet cutting process of aluminium alloy EN AW 5083. Experimentations for this paper were carried out on the basis of standard L27 Taguchi's orthogonal array in which three plasma jet cutting parameters such as cutting speed, arc current and cutting height were arranged at three levels. From the analysis of means, analysis of variance and two-way interactions plot, significant plasma jet cutting process parameters and optimal combination of their levels that lead to minimal bevel angle were identified. The results showed that all three process parameters significantly affect bevel angle response. The predicted response at optimal plasma jet cutting conditions has a good fit with result of bevel angle from observed experiment.
