The main aim of this investigation is to study the surface roughness produced on abrasive water jet machining of the twill weaved carbon fibre reinforced epoxy composite. Abrasive water jet machining experiment was conducted as per L9 orthogonal array, by varying water pressure, transverse speed and SOD. The performance of the composite was analysed by measuring the surface roughness. Using Taguchi analysis, the influences of input parameter over the output response was analysed. It was found that the surface roughness is highly influenced by the transverse speed.
