In this study, optimum process parameters were analyzed for minimum surface roughness and radius error in laser cutting of EN10025-2 (S235JR) cold rolled scoured steel plate. The experiments were designed according to Taguchi method. Feed rate, laser power, frequency and focus were selected as process parameters in laser cutting operations. Based on the analyzing results, the optimum process parameter combinations for minimizing the surface roughness and the radius error were obtained.
