Abstract

This paper presents optimum drilling parameters of coir fiber reinforced polyester composites following the Taguchi design of experiment. A simple multi-objective optimization approach is suggested and presented an efficient prediction methodology to estimate thrust force, torque and tool wear for the identified optimum process parameters.
