This paper presents the estimation of kerf width in micro wire electrical discharge machining (micro WEDM) in terms of machining parameters of capacitance and gap voltage. An empirical model is developed by the analysis of variance (ANOVA) of experimental data. Using a wire electrode of 70 µm diameter, a minimum kerf width is found to be 92 µm for the micro WEDM parameters of 0.01 µF capacitance and 90.25 V gap voltage. Around 30% increament of the kerf is found to be high. The analysis also revealed that the capacitance is more influential parameter than gap voltage on kerf width produced by micro WEDM. As the gap voltage determines the breakdown distance and affects the wire vibration, the wire vibration factor is to be considered in the analysis and in formulation of model in future study.

Wire electrical discharge machining has appeared mainly in response to the need for detachment with sufficiently high accuracy of parts of plate-type workpieces. The improvements introduced later allowed the extension of this machining technology to obtain more complex ruled surfaces with increasingly high requirements regarding the quality of the machined surfaces and the productivity of the wire electrical discharge machining process. Therefore, it was normal for researchers to be interested in developing more and more in-depth investigations into the various aspects of wire electrical discharge machining. These studies focused first on improving the machining equipment, wire electrodes, and the devices used to position the clamping of a wire electrode and workpiece. A second objective pursued was determining the most suitable conditions for developing the machining process for certain proper situations. As output parameters, the machining productivity, the accuracy, and roughness of the machined surfaces, the wear of the wire electrode, and the changes generated in the surface layer obtained by machining were taken into account. There is a large number of scientific papers that have addressed issues related to wire electrical discharge machining. The authors aimed to reveal the aspects that characterize the process, phenomena, performances, and evolution trends specific to the wire electrical discharge machining processes, as they result from scientific works published mainly in the last two decades.

This paper deals with the development and comparison of prediction models established using response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural network (ANN) for a wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) process. The WEDM experiments were designed using central composite design (CCD) for machining of Inconel 718 superalloy. During experimentation, the pulse-on-time (TON), pulse-off-time (TOFF), servo-voltage (SV), peak current (IP), and wire tension (WT) were chosen as control factors, whereas, the kerf width (Kf), surface roughness (Ra), and materials removal rate (MRR) were selected as performance attributes. The analysis of variance tests was performed to identify the control factors that significantly affect the performance attributes. The double hidden layer ANN model was developed using a back-propagation ANN algorithm, trained by the experimental results. The prediction accuracy of the established ANN model was found to be superior to the RSM model. Finally, the Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA- II) was implemented to determine the optimum WEDM conditions from multiple objectives.

Abstract Surface machined by high-speed wire electrical discharge machining (HS-WEDM) at super-high thickness (more than 1000 mm) cutting suffers from uneven surface, a major problem that has been investigated in this paper. According to the analysis, as wire frame span increases, the rigidity of the wire electrode decreases, and under the action of discharge explosive force, wire electrode vibration intensifies. As a result, the machining stability inevitably decreases. However, the core problem is whether there is enough working fluid in the slit to dampen and absorb the vibration of the wire electrode so as to ensure the positional stability of the wire electrode. To verify the above point of view: first, the wire guide and gravity take-up with bidirectional tension in the wire feeding system were installed to improve the positional accuracy of the wire electrode; second, to improve the flow of the working fluid into the slit, the slit width was increased by improving the working fluid and a medium carrier with a higher melting point and vaporization point can reduce the vaporization of the working fluid in the slit as much as possible. The experiment showed that the outlet flow of the improved working fluid is 56.72% higher than that of the original working fluid when cutting a 750 mm thick workpiece, which increases the damping and vibration absorption effect of the working fluid on the wire electrode in the long and narrow gap. After the above measures were implemented, super-high thickness cutting can be carried out continuously and steadily, the surface evenness was significantly improved, and the workpiece with a thickness of 2000 mm was cut successfully.
