Abstract
This paper represents a multivariate hybrid approach, combining Multi-Objective Optimization on the basis of Ratio Analysis (MOORA) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to optimize different correlated responses during Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) process of titanium grade 6. The response parameters selected are the average cutting speed, average Kerf width and average surface roughness (Ra). All of them have been studied in terms of pulse-ON time, pulse-OFF time, wire feed and wire tension. As indicated by Taguchi’s signal-to-noise ratio, the optimum process parameters were achieved for the desired average cutting speed, average Kerf width and average surface roughness, respectively. At last, the optimum combination of process parameters was validated by affirmation test which gave considerably improved various quality characteristics. Confirmation test outcome revealed that multivariate hybrid approach MOORA coupled with PCA was a competent strategy to decide available cutting parameters for a desired response quality for WEDM of titanium grade 6.
