Abstract

This study has been conducted to optimize the dressing parameters to find the minimum surface roughness for internal grinding of hardened SKD11 steel using the Taguchi method. The input parameters used are coarse dressing depth, number of coarse dressing, fine dressing depth, number of fine dressing, non-feeding dressing, and dressing feed speed. The Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and an analysis of the signal-to-noise (S/N) response are conducted to estimate the significance of each input parameter on the responses. It shows that the number of coarse dressing has the most decisive impact on Ra (88.28%). Furthermore, the discrepancy of the roughness average from the experiments and that from prediction are minor.
