IN THE PREVIOUSLY PRESENTED SME PAPER (PART 1), THE UPRATING OF A COMMERCIAL INTERNAL DIAMETER GRINDING MACHINE, WAS DESCRIBED. THIS PAPER ILLUSTRATES HOW THE DEVELOPED SYSTEMS ENABLES THE EVALUATION OF CBN GRINDING WHEELS, COOLANT TYPES AND DRESSER SYSTEMS IN A SCIENTIFIC MANNER USING INDUSTRY STANDARD PERFORMANCE PARAMETERS. THE DATA WERE OBTAINED BY THE USE OF A TAGUCHI L16 FRACTORIAL EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN. TEN FACTORS AND FIVE INTERACTIONS, AT TWO LEVELS WERE CHOSEN. SEVEN RESPONSES WERE INVESTIGATED. THE DESIGNS ARE BALANCED AND ORTHOGONAL AND ALLOW FOR AN EFFICIENT ESTIMATION OF THE MAIN EFFECTS, EVEN THOUGH THE NUMBER OF EXPERIMENTAL RUNS IS SMALL.
