Abstract

Grinding is one of the most important and widely used manufacturing processes. In grinding operation, the selection of optimum process parameters is vital. Achieving optimum Material Removal Rate and surface finish at minimum possible machining cost and time is a challenging task. Various researchers are working in this field to get optimum yields and optimum planning of experiments. The optimum conditions could be yielded using traditional and nontraditional optimization techniques, such as Taguchi, Response Surface Methodology, Genetic Algorithm, etc. In this article, an attempt is made in reviewing the effect of various process parameters on various grinding operation on different steel alloy materials. This review relies on notable academic publications and conference proceedings.

Keywords
