In addition, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) are used to characterize the chips. The chips obtained by the optimised machining conditions are processed further with high energy ball mill and hence nano crystal powders are obtained. Here modified Taguchi method is used to optimize the ball mill parameters like milling speed, milling time and ball mill to Nano powder ratio. | Modelling and parametric analysis in production of nanostructure stainless steel powder using modified taguchi technique
