The mathematical relationship between the machining parameters and the performance characteristics was formulated by using a linear regression model with interactions. Optimal levels of parametric combination for achieving the higher surface quality with maximum productivity were selected by grey relational analysis which is based on the high value of grey relational grade. Confirmation experiments were carried out to prove the powerful improvement of experimental results and to validate the effectiveness of the multi-optimization technique applied in this paper. | Simultaneous improvement of surface quality and productivity using grey relational analysis based Taguchi design for turning couple AISI D3 steel mixed ceramic tool Al2O3 TiC
