ANFIS Modeling of Delamination During Drilling of Medium Density Fiber (MDF) Board

Medium density fiber board (MDF) is an engineered wood product which possesses medium density than normal wood and is widely applicable in interior and exterior applications in industries. Normally in drilling process the materials reduce their performance due to delamination. The objective of this paper is to estimate delamination effect on MDF board. The modeling was done using ANFIS tool box of MATLAB. The experiment was done by giving the input parameters- speed, feed rate, drill diameter for which the output response taken was delamination. Root mean square error for different membership functions of delamination was obtained and the effect of speed, feed rate and drill diameter was studied.
