Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) is extensively used in machining of conductive materials when precision is of prime importance. Rough cutting operation in WEDM is treated as a challenging one because improvement of more than one machining performance measures viz. metal removal rate (MRR), surface finish (SF) and cutting width (kerf) are sought to obtain a precision work. Using Taguc...

Powder mixed electro discharge machining (PMEDM) is a hybrid process in which dielectric fluid with electrically conductive powder particles for enhancing surface quality and material removal rate. Cryogenic treatment was brought this to improve tool life cutting properties. In research, silicon carbide (SiC) (EDM) has been performed AISI 304 machining. Experiments have carried out study the ef...

In the present work, an experimental investigation on wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) of Monel-400 has been presented. Monel-400 is a nickel–copper-based alloy, mostly employed in ships and corrosion-resisting applications. Four input WEDM parameters namely discharge current (Ip), pulse-on time (Ton), pulse-off time (Toff) and servo voltage (SV) have been investigated and modeled for...

Existing manufacturing industries are fronting challenges from these advanced nasent materials viz. nano material ,ceramics, super alloys, and metal matrix composites, that are hard and difficult to machine, requiring high accuracy, surface quality excellence which affects and increases machining cost. To meet these tasks, unconventional machining processes are being used to achieve optimum met...

A number of unique challenges arise in fabricating and assembling complex mechanisms at the meso-scale (hundreds of microns to centimetres). In general, for a complex multi-part mechanism at this length scale, no single machining technique can produce all the necessary parts—or often even a single individual part. Towards developing a comprehensive set of ‘best practices’ for combining multiple...

EDM is an unconventional electro thermal machining process used for manufacturing geometrically complex or hard material parts that are extremely difficult-to-machine by conventional machining process. The process involves a controlled erosion of electrically conductive materials by the initiation of rapid and repetitive spark discharges between the tool and work piece separated by a small gap ...
