In the paper, the design optimization of the food-contact water tank filter used in industrial kitchen products was made and produced in plastic injection molding machine with different parameters. The effects of production parameters on product weight, fabric filter strength (tearing), production time and surface quality (burrs and gas gap) were investigated experimentally and statistically. The design of the experiments was prepared with the Taguchi L[Formula: see text] orthogonal array. Experiment parameters are determined as injection speed (A), holding press (B), holding speed (C), mold temperature (D), melting temperature (E) and compression waiting time (F). As a result, 154% improvement was achieved in the fabric strength as a result of design optimization. As a result of the optimization of the injection parameters of the product, when the response tables were examined, it is determined that the greatest value of filter fabric strength is 298[Formula: see text]N in A2B2C2D1E1F3 parameters. When ANOVA results are analyzed, the most effective parameter for fabric strength and surface quality was determined as mold temperature with 36.38% and compression waiting time with the lowest effective parameter as 0.08%.
