Abstract

Within modern age, there is huge investigation in machining and exploration in innovation of technology. On the list of successful project is hybrid machine within the combination of two or more process in single machine. The increasing of competition in industry and on order to achieve high precision and reliability, today the nontraditional machining are become lifeline of almost any industry. The most essential nontraditional machining approaches are Air Plasma Machining. Its finishing, high precision, the capability to cut variety hard materials and to create complex design raises the need in industry. Throughout thesis literature review has been analyzed in framework to parametric optimization of Air Plasma Cutting Machine. In order to achieve target and optimum results, two level factorial method utilized. The suitable orthogonal array has been decided according to number of parameter and there levels to execute minimum testing. The work pieces of American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) D2 tool steel materials were used for experiment purpose. The best possible value has been decided with by using major influence plot and ANOVA table. The Regression equation for distance of cut has been developed with the help of Design Expert 7.0 Software. Verification experiments have done to verify the value predicted throughout software. The verification for Distance of cut run has been carried and experimental results are provided to confirm the effectiveness of this approach, the DOC value was 4.625mm. Error within 10 % was allowed, where the similarity between model and experimental result is 96.7%, the conclusion that, this model can used for reduce the process time and cost
