Abstract
Polishing process has not been thoroughly understood. The current practice of determining parameter setting for polishing process is done by trial and error approach and subjective experience of polish experts. This may not lead to optimal parameter settings. In this paper, Taguchi method is proposed to determine optimal parameter setting for rough polishing of stainless steel. Experiments are designed using orthogonal arrays. The optimal setting is obtained through average level analysis. Confirmation experiment showed that the roughness is satisfactory.
