Abstract

In the present analysis work, a plastic extrusion process that’s used for production of drip irrigation pipes is optimized using Taugchi approach. It’s vital to spot and optimize the process parameters, to assure quality extrusion pipe producing. Conjointly it’s essential to find out the defects in it. For analysis work Akash Drip Industries, company was elite. Taguchi technique is employed to optimize the method parameters, temperature and take-off speed. The experiment was conducted for 3 totally different material providers as supplier changes properties of material aiming to modified due to parameter setting throughout producing of material. Taugchi L9 orthogonal array is chosen for experimental designing and experiment was analyzed exploitation business Minitab18 computer code. After interpretation of values, optimized factor settings were chosen to predict minimum defects. The result unconcealed that using optimized values of things proportion defects for uneven wall thickness decreased from average of 4.19, 4.103, 5.04 to 1.38, 1.66, and 1.18 severally for 3 material suppliers.
