Abstract

Quality and productivity plays important role in today’s manufacturing market. Now a day’s due to very stiff and cut throat competitive market condition in manufacturing industries and the main objective of industries reveal with producing better quality product at minimum cost and increase productivity. In this study AA 6082 aluminum alloy was chosen to and this material can find various applications. It is commonly used for highly stressed applications, trusses, bridges, cranes, ore skips, transport applications resistance and machinability. End milling is one of the most commonly used metal removal operation in industry because of its ability to remove material faster with good surface finish and Surface roughness depends on the factors like spindle speed, depth of cut, feed rate, material and geometry of tool. The study also focuses to Optimize process parameters using Taguchi design of experiments. The three process parameters and three levels are selected and orthogonal array L9 is used for experimentation and the surface roughness is measured and optimized. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is performed to know the impact of individual factors on surface roughness. Using regression analysis the theoretical values are predicted and compared with the experimental values for validation.
