Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) is a non-traditional thermo-electric process capable of machining hard materials of highly complex three dimensional shapes. In this paper, the dry WEDM experimentation is conducted using oxygen as a dielectric medium. The deionized water is replaced by the oxygen as a dielectric medium to ameliorate the environmental impact in the machining surroundin...

Purpose: In this paper, the effects of various process parameters of WEDM like pulse on time (TON), pulse off time (TOFF), gap voltage (SV), peak current (IP), wire feed (WF) and wire tension (WT) have been investigated to reveal their impact on material removal rate of hot die steel (H-11) using one variable at a time approach. The optimal set of process parameters has also been predicted to m...

Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) is a method to cut conductive materials with a thin electrode that follows a programmed path. The electrode is a thin wire. Typical diameters range from .004" - .012" (.10mm - .30mm) although smaller and larger diameters are available. WEDM is a thermal machining process capable of accurately machining parts with varying hardness or complex shapes. WED...

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...

Background: Wire Electrical discharge machining (WEDM) has higher capability for cutting complex shapes with high precision for very hard materials without using high cost of cutting tools. During the WEDM process, the wire behaves like a metal string, straightened by two axial pulling forces and deformed laterally by a sum of forces from the discharge process. Major forces acting on the wire c...

In this paper, fuzzy logic integrated with the Taguchi method is used to optimize Wire Electro Discharge Machining (WEDM) process with multiple quality characteristics. Rough machining with EDM gives poor surface finish and has micro cracks and pores. Finish machining gives better surface finish but with very poor machining speed (MRR). Spark gap width is one of the important performance measur...
