This work presents the wire-EDM of WC-Co composite and optimization of process parameters using an integrated technique of response surface methodology (RSM), Vise Kriterijumska Optimizacija Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) and artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm to obtain the best set of machinability indicators. Wire feed (WF), servo voltage (SV), pulse off-time (Pon) and pulse on-time (Poff) are the variable process parameters, whereas root mean square roughness (Rq), average surface roughness (Ra) and material removal rate (MRR) are the machinability indicators considered in the present work. A total of twenty nine experiments have been conducted based on Box Behnken design (BBD) technique of response surface methodology. VIKOR has been used for normalization of responses and followed by solving empirical models using ABC algorithm to obtain optimized process parameters setting. WF-12 m/min, SV-65V, Pon-116 µs, Poff-20 µs are the optimum wire-EDM parameters obtained by intelligent RSM-VIKOR-ABC technique that produced best values of Ra-4.51 µm, Rq-5.64 µm, MRR-0.061 mm3 /min simultaneously. The validation test confirmed an improvement up to 15% in the response characteristics which proved the effectiveness of this novel hybrid technique for optimization. The optimum parameter setting is for ready industrial reference to attain best surface quality and process productivity for WC-Co composite machining by wire-EDM.

This study uses Taguchi methodology and Gray Relational Analysis approach to explore the optimization of face milling process parameters for Al 6061 T6 alloy.Surface Roughness (Ra), Material Removal Rate (MRR) has been identified as the objective of performance and productivity.The tests were performed by selecting cutting speed (mm / min), feed rate (mm / rev) and cutting depth (mm) at three settings on the basis of Taguchi's L9 orthogonal series.The grey relational approach was being used to establish a multiobjective relationship between both the parameters of machining and the characteristics of results. To find the optimum values of parameters in the milling operation, the response list and plots are used and found to be Vc2-f1-d3. To order to justify the optimum results, the confirmation tests are performed.The machining process parameters for milling were thus optimized in this research to achieve the combined goals such as low surface roughness and high material removal rate on Aluminum 6061 t6.It was concluded that depth of cut is the most influencing parameter followed by feed rate and cutting velocity.

Wire cut electrical discharge machining (WEDM) is a hybrid manufacturing technology which enables machining of all engineering materials. This research article deals with investigation on Optimization of the Process Parameters of the wire cut EDM of Bronze material of dimension (80*80*40) in mm. Material removal rate, Surface roughness and Kerf width were studied against the process parameters such as Pulse on time(TON), Pulse off time (TOFF) and Current(IP). The machining parameters for wire EDM were optimized for achieving the combined objectives. As there are three input parameters 27 experiments is carried out and full factorial is used. Optimized parameters were found using (ANOVA) and the error percentage can be validated and parameter contribution for the Material removal rate (MRR) and Surface roughness were found.

The Impact

ABSTRACT     In this era, the machining process has been very advanced wich is equipped with advanced technologies. The impact of the machining process used to develop and increase quality and quantity product produce. Machining process wire – EDM (Wire Cutting Electrical Discharge Machining) is one of the non – conventional machining process wich is commonly used in die – mold, disk brake, punch, and cutting tools. The speed of MRR (Material Removal Rate) and the smoothness of a surface has a very important role in a product wich concerns lubrication, wear, friction and resistance problems. Based on the problem, a study was research for find out what variables affetc the response variable. From the result of the study it is known that the current and interpulse affected the MRR, and the current, interpulse, and wirespeed also affect surface roughness. With the RSM (Response Surface Methode) methode optimum result for MRR the fasted 64,5688 mm3/minutes and the surface roughness smoothest 5,2391 µm with the combination variable current is 8 amp, interpulse, 7 µs, and wirespeed 5 mm/s. Keywords: Wire – EDM, Response Surface Methode (RSM), Material Removal Rate (MRR), surface roughness
