Abstract

Laser-based surface texturing provides highly controlled interference fit between two parts. In this work, artificial intelligence-based models were used to predict the surface properties of laser processed stainless steel 316 samples. Artificial neural network (ANN) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) were used to predict the characteristics of laser surface texturing. The models based on feedforward neural network (FFNN) were developed to examine the effect of the laser process parameters for surface texturing on 316L cylindrical pins. The accuracy of the models was measured by calculating the root mean square error and mean absolute error. The reliability of the ANFIS and FFNN models for the output prediction of the laser surface texturing (LST) system were investigated by using the data measured from experiments based on a 3^3 factorial design, with main processing parameters set as laser power, pulse repetition frequency, and percentage of laser spot overlap. The relative assessment of the models was performed by comparing percentage error prediction. Finally, the impact of input data was examined using predicted response surface plots. Results showed that ANFIS prediction was 48% more accurate compared with that provided by the FFNN model.
