I. INTRODUCTION 
Surface roughness is an important measure of product quality since it greatly influences the performance of mechanical parts as well as production cost. There have been many research developments in modelling surface roughness and optimization of the controlling parameters to obtain a surface finish of desired level since only proper selection of cutting parameters can produce a better surface finish. In the manufacturing industries, various machining processes are adapted for removing the material from the work-piece for a better product. Out of these, end milling process is one of the most vital and common metal cutting operations used for machining parts because of its ability to remove materials faster with a reasonably good surface quality. In recent times, computer numerically controlled machine tools have been implemented to utilize full automation in milling since they provide greater improvements in productivity, increase the quality of the machined parts and require less operator input.[1] Face milling is an operation for producing plane or flat surfaces using face milling cutters. Surface roughness is one of the most important parameter to determine the quality of product. Several factors like cutting speed, feed, depth of cut, type of coolant, coolant pressure, tool geometry, work piece material influence surface roughness[2]. Surface Roughness : The surface parameter used to evaluate surface roughness in this study is the roughness average (Ra). The roughness average is the area between the roughness profile and its central line, or the integral of the absolute value of the roughness profile height over the evaluation length [3]. Ra is defined as the arithmetic value of the departure of the profile from the centerline along sampling length. It can be expressed by the following mathematical relationships. Ra = …(i) where Ra=the arithmetic average deviation from the mean line, and Y =the ordinate of the profile curve. 
II. EXPERIMENTAL SET-UP 
In this work, Taguchi method used for Design of experiments (DOE).Analysis of Variance is adapted for performance analysis. Finally, with the use of Regression Analysis, mathematical model for Ra is generated and it is validated.

The level of a factor with the highest S/N ratio was the optimum level for responses measured. From 
the Table 7 and Figure 4 it is clear that, the better surface finish (Ra) can be obtained at cutting speed (1600 
rpm), feed (150 mm/min),depth of cut (0.2mm) and coolant flow rate (20 lit/min). The response table includes 
ranks based on Delta statistics, which compare the relative magnitude of effects. The Delta statistic is the 
highest minus the lowest average for each factor. Minitab assigns ranks based on Delta values[9]; rank one to 
the highest Delta value, rank two to the Second highest, and so on[10].

From main effect plot in figure 1.It has been shown that the value of a S/N ratio is maximum at speed of 1600 rpm and minimum at 1200 rpm, further it has been shown that the value of S/N ratio is increasing initially but it decreases further with the increasing in feed rate, and also as depth of cut increases, surface roughness also increases from 0.2 mm to 0.4 mm. Surface roughness value increases from 20 lit/min to 40 lit/min of coolant flow rate.

V. CONCLUSIONS 
This study discussed the effects of face milling parameters on surface roughness of SAE 1541 by Taguchi method. From this research, following conclusions could be reached with a fair amount of confidence. Regardless of the category of the quality characteristics, the lower the better for surface roughness the lowest feed rate (B=150 mm/min),the highest cutting speed ( A= 1600 rpm ),lowest depth of cut ( C=0.2 mm) and the lowest coolant flow ( D=20 lit/min) lead to the lower surface roughness value In this study, feed and cutting speed are the most influencing factor compared to depth of cut. Coolant flow rate is the least significant factor for surface roughness. REFERENCES

Professor, Mechanical Engineering Department ,Government College of Engineering,Aurangabad,Maharashtra,431005) Dr.Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University Aurangabad, India ABSTRACT : The purpose of this study is to investigate effect of process parameters on surface roughness on SAE 1541 material by carbide tools in face milling. In this study, parameters like cutting speed, feed, depth of cut and coolant flow rate considered. Series of experiments were studied by Design of Experiments (DOE). L9 Orthogonal array is selected and experiments were taken by the use of Taguchi method. Experimental Analysis is done by ANOVA and results were drawn out on the basis of analysis. It is investigated that cutting speed, feed and depth of cut are the influencing factors. KEYWORDS: Face Milling, Surface Roughness, Taguchi Method, L9 Orthogonal Array, ANOVA I. INTRODUCTION Surface roughness is an important measure of product quality since it greatly influences the performance of mechanical parts as well as production cost. There have been many research developments in modelling surface roughness and optimization of the controlling parameters to obtain a surface finish of desired level since only proper selection of cutting parameters can produce a better surface finish. In the manufacturing industries, various machining processes are adapted for removing the material from the work-piece for a better product. Out of these, end milling process is one of the most vital and common metal cutting operations used for machining parts because of its ability to remove materials faster with a reasonably good surface quality. In recent times, computer numerically controlled machine tools have been implemented to utilize full automation in milling since they provide greater improvements in productivity, increase the quality of the machined parts and require less operator input.[1] Face milling is an operation for producing plane or flat surfaces using face milling cutters. Surface roughness is one of the most important parameter to determine the quality of product. Several factors like cutting speed, feed, depth of cut, type of coolant, coolant pressure, tool geometry, work piece material influence surface roughness[2]. Surface Roughness : The surface parameter used to evaluate surface roughness in this study is the roughness average (Ra). The roughness average is the area between the roughness profile and its central line, or the integral of the absolute value of the roughness profile height over the evaluation length [3]. Ra is defined as the arithmetic value of the departure of the profile from the centerline along sampling length. It can be expressed by the following mathematical relationships. Ra = …(i) where Ra=the arithmetic average deviation from the mean line, and Y =the ordinate of the profile curve. II. EXPERIMENTAL SET-UP In this work, Taguchi method used for Design of experiments (DOE).Analysis of Variance is adapted for performance analysis. Finally, with the use of Regression Analysis, mathematical model for Ra is generated and it is validated.

CONCLUSIONS This study discussed the effects of face milling parameters on surface roughness of SAE 1541 by Taguchi method. From this research, following conclusions could be reached with a fair amount of confidence. Regardless of the category of the quality characteristics, the lower the better for surface roughness the lowest feed rate (B=150 mm/min),the highest cutting speed ( A= 1600 rpm ),lowest depth of cut ( C=0.2 mm) and the lowest coolant flow ( D=20 lit/min) lead to the lower surface roughness value In this study, feed and cutting speed are the most influencing factor compared to depth of cut. Coolant flow rate is the least significant factor for surface roughness.
