Lapping is a finishing process used especially for removing the material, achieving finer surfaces, correcting minor imperfections and maintaining close tolerances. This process may takes place due to the relative motion between the work material, slurry and lapping plate. This study is done by conducting a series of experiments based on taguchi design of experiments and calculating material removal rate and surface roughness. This study explains about effect of the parameters on material removal rate and surface finish. The final step of this process is to find out the optimum combination of process parameters to determine the material removal rate and the surface finish.
