Geometric error Prediction and Grinding Condition Optimization using Taguchi Methods

Taguchi 기법을 이용한 형상오차 예측 및 최적조건 선정

Grinding process is different from other machining processes such as turning, milling and drilling because the cutting edges in a grinding wheel doesn't have uniformity and acts differently on the workpiece at each grinding. This study focus on predicting the geometric error produced during surface grinding and selecting an optimal grinding condition to reduce the geometric error. To achieve the aim, the Taguchi design of experiments was applied and the S/N ratios of each grinding was used for evaluating the results. The predicted quantities by the S/N ratios were compared with the experimental results.
