Abstract
This paper presented optimization of machining parameters for high pressure abrasive water jet (AWJ) cutting of Hardox 500 steel utilizing WASPAS approach. Weighted aggregated sum product assessment (WASPAS) method is explored as an effective MCDM tool while solving advanced manufacturing decision making problems. It is a unique combination of two well-known MCDM approaches, i.e. weighted sum model (WSM) and weighted product model (WPM).The tests were caried out according to the orthogonal matrix (Taguchi) L27. The control parameters of process such pressure, abrasive flow rate and traverse speed was optimized under multi-response conditions namely cutting depth and surface roughness. The optimal set of control parameters was established on the ground of the overall weighted criterium. Effects shows that optimal set for high cutting depth and small surface roughness are high pressure, high abrasive flow rate and small traverse speed. Results of research have shown that machining efficiency at keeping satisfactory level quality of cut surface can be improved this approach.
