Abstract—In this paper a friction performance for modified ZA-27 alloy is studied using taguchi method. The parameters considered for this experimental study are Nr. Pressure and sliding speed. The friction behaviour of the specimens was investigated using wear and friction monitor apparatus. The experiments were conducted by the plan of experiments generated by using taguchi method. The orthogonal array, signal-to-noise ratio and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were employed to optimize the testing parameters on modified ZA-27 alloy. Multiple linear regression analysis was carried out to develop a amount of relation for friction with the process parameter.
