Abstract
This paper presents a comparison of three different experimental desig ns aimed at studying the effects of cutting parameters variations on s urface finish, The results revealed that the effects obtained by analy zing both fractional and Taguchi designs (16 trials each) were compara ble to the main effects and tow-level interactions obtained by the ful l factorial design (288 trials). Thus, we conclude that screening desi gns appear to be reliable and more economical since they permit to red uce by a factor 18 the amount of time and effort required to conduct t he experimental design without losing valuable information.
