Abstract

Vacuum moulding (VM) process has many potential engineering applications. Not much work hitherto has been reported for modeling the surface roughness (SR) in VM process. In the present study, outcome of Taguchi model has been used for developing a mathematical model for SR; using Buckingham's p-theorem. Three input parameters namely type of metal/ pouring temperature; shape factor and vacuum pressure were selected to give output in form of SR. This study provides main effect of these variables on SR and shed light on the mechanism of SR in VM process.
