The present article introduces a techno-economic dimension to the turning process using literature data to correct a deficiency. This paper is about combining three variants of the Taguchi methods in five distinct formulations. The Taguchi, Taguchi-Pareto, and Taguchi-ABC methods are combined with the present worth method by introducing the interest and inflationary rates at different points in the S/N ratio (SNR) calculations. Aspect ratios and direct parameter combinations replace the traditional direct parameter analysis in the factor-level framework. A key result of this study is as follows: For the present worth evaluation of inflationary factors and considering the ranking order of parameters, namely C, F, C/V, F/V, C/F, V/C, F/C, 1/F, and 1/C, for all the twelve alternative combinations, the parameters C, F, F/V, V/C, 1/F, and 1/C performed better. The parameter V had the 5th position equivalent to 17% for V, 85% for C/V, 17% for 1/V, 8% for F/C, and 8% for C/F. Results for other formulations show promising attributes for the methods. The work could be useful for planning purposes in turning operations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
