In modern machining process, optimization technique is used to find the optimal values of input parameters and the effect of those parameters on response variables. If response parameters are more than one, Taguchi method of optimization may give different set of optimal levels for each response. In the present study, Taguchi-grey relational approach based multi response optimization has been u...

Electrical Discharge Machine (EDM) is especially used for the manufacturing of 3-D complex geometry and hard material parts that are extremely difficult-to-machine by conventional machining processes. In this paper authors review the research work carried out in the development of die-sinking EDM within the past decades for the improvement of machining characteristics such as Material Removal R...

The increasing demand of micro or miniature parts and the development of the micro machining processes are the cause of the growing of micro wire electrical discharge machining (μ-WEDM). μ-WEDM has the ability to manufacture complicate shapes with high accuracy and provides the advantage of machining any conductive materials regardless of their mechanical properties in the absence of significan...

Shape memory alloys are kind of smart materials, which have distinctive properties and are superior in compare with other alloys. Severe reactions to thermodynamic and mechanical parameters and ability to return to their original shape make these alloys distinctive from other alloy regarding machining ability. Since these alloys have a very useful application in various fields such as aerospace...

The operating control parameters of injection flushing type of electrical discharge machining process on stainless steel 304 workpiece with copper tools are being optimized according to its individual machining characteristic i.e. material removal rate (MRR). Lower MRR during EDM machining process may decrease its’ machining productivity. Hence, the quality characteristic for MRR is set to high...
