In this work, the multi-objective optimization aspects of plasma arc machining (PAM), electro-discharge machining (EDM), and micro electro-discharge machining (mu-EDM) processes are considered. Experiments are performed and actual experimental data is used to develop regression models for the considered machining processes. A posteriori version of Jaya algorithm (MO-Jaya algorithm) is proposed to solve the multi-objective optimization models in a single simulation run. The PAM, EDM and mu-EDM processes are optimized using MO-Jaya algorithm and a set of Pareto-efficient solutions is obtained for each of the considered machining processes and the same is reported in this work. This Pareto optimal set of solutions will provide flexibility to the process planner to choose the best setting of parameters depending on the application. The aim of this work is to demonstrate the performance of MO-Jaya algorithm and to show its effectiveness in solving the multi-objective optimization problems of machining processes.
