Abstract: Presently, manufacturing industries is facing acute global competition based on technological advancement and resource availability. Therefore, it is essential to unearth barriers and enablers that hinder and promote the unexplored potential of the grinding technology. Grinding is always a high stake process where even a minute error can convert a product into a scrap. Based on the extant literature and expert's opinion, the present work initially identified eight barriers related to the grinding process. Further, using analytic hierarchy process, six significant barriers have been selected out of the earlier identified eight barriers. Additionally, the total interpretive structural modelling (TISM) based model incorporating the six key barriers has been developed that explains the relationship between these selected barriers, which essentially hinder the usage of the true potential of the grinding process. The developed TISM model indicates that conventional technology in the grinding industry primarily affects the cost of the manufactured products.
