Magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) is a non-classical finishing in which a super-finished surface is produced. This study aims to develop a fuzzy logic (FL) model for predicting the CuZn28 surface roughness produced by a new pole geometry MAF process. The experimental work was done before, and its data were recalled here to develop the FL model. Pole geometry, rotational speed, MAFtime, and applied current were used with three levels that generated nine experimental runs based on the L9 Taguchi experimental scheme. Four membership functions were applied, and the developed FL model reached 87% prediction accuracy. The degree of change in each membership function reflects the significance rank of parameters, which were speed, current, time, and pole geometry.
