Laser Beam Cutting is an advanced material removal process. Due to versatile properties of Laser beam, flexible operation characteristics and capacity of processing wide range of materials (i.e. Metals and Alloys, Ceramics, Fiber etc.) it finds wide area of application in industry. Application of Taguchi’s DOE & Response Surface Methodology (RSM) approach in order to analyze and optimize laser parameters for processing of EN-31 material has been presented here. Effects of cutting speed, duty cycle and stand-of-distance (S.O.D) have been selected for investigation using Taguchi’s Standard L27 orthogonal array. Selected response has been optimized using Response Surface Methodology Approach. The selected response for Optimization is Kerf width.
