In this study, the eff ects of cutting parameters on kerf and surface roughness were experimentally investigated in WEDM. Al 7 475-T7 351 alloy was selected as the work material to conduct experiments. The factors selected for the optimization are the pulse on time, table feed rate and the wire speed, each of the factors in three diff erent levels. An optimal parameter combination of the WEDM p...

This work attempts to optimize the multi-objective characteristics of wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) in SLM-fabricated AlSi10Mg through a hybrid artificial neural network (ANN) coupled genetic algorithm approach. The SLM is unambiguously one most effective commercially viable successful additive manufacturing (AM) technologies that have potential replace many traditional methods man...

Wire electro discharge machining (WEDM) has become one of the most popular processes for producing precise geometries in hard materials, such as those used in the tooling industry. Since it is recognized as a precision process, optimization of different aspects related to dimensional accuracy is a classic research topic. The so-called tapercutting involves the generation of inclined ruled surfa...

--There are various techniques which can be used for the manufacture of microproducts, micro electromechanical systems (MEMS) based manufacturing .Broadly these techniques are photolithography, chemical etching, plating, laser fabrication. Micro machining may be seen as an ultra precision material removal process and by this process it is able to achieve micro form accuracy and nanometers finis...

This paper presents the design and development of a real-time monitoring and diagnosis system for diagnosing degraded cutting regimes in Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM). The detection in advance of the degradation of the cutting process is crucial since this can lead to the breakage of the cutting tool (the wire), reducing the process productivity and the required accuracy. This work...

Superalloys are a much-needed material for abundant engineering fields, such as nuclear-powered reactor components and aeronautics. Owing to their exceptional characteristics, higher thermal conductivity, they can be difficult machine using conventional processes. Modern approaches machining have evolved utilize these materials. One of the techniques studied in this project is electrical discha...
