Wire electric discharge machining non-contact machining process based on spark erosion technique. It can machine difficult-to-cut materials with excellent precision. In this paper Alloy-X, a nickel-based superalloy was machined at different machining parameters. Input parameters like pulse on time, pulse off time, servo voltage and wire feed were employed for the machining. Response parameters like cutting speed and surface roughness were analyzed from the L25 orthogonal experiments. It was noted that the pulse on time and servo voltage were the most influential parameters. Both cutting speed and surface roughness increased on increase in pulse on time and decrease in servo voltage. Grey relation analysis was performed to get the optimal parametric setting. Response surface method and artificial neural network predictors were used in the prediction of cutting speed and surface roughness. It was found that among the two predictors artificial neural network was accurate than response surface method.

Recently, ingots of silicon carbide have been adapted to be sliced by the wire-cut electrical discharge machining. Fast slicing, and the reduction in the loss are important for slicing of the wafer. In this paper, characteristic features of the electric discharge machining in the ion-exchange water and the fluorine-based fluid were compared for these improvement. The discharge was caused by a pulse voltage applied to a ingot of silicon carbide and the wire in machining fluid, and the slicing was proceeded. As a result, improvement of surface roughness and kerf loss was confirmed, for the first time. In addition, the improving methods for fast slicing were considered.

The present work explains the machining of Titanium alloy using Electric Discharge Machining & Electro-Chemical Machining. This work aims to analyze the role of Current, Pulse on Time, Voltage and hence optimize the Material Removal Rate and Surface Roughness in Electric Discharge Machining. In the same way, it also aims to analyze the role of Concentration, Feed, and Voltage and optimize the Material Removal Rate and Surface Roughness in Electro-Chemical Machining. The various approaches like Taguchi & Analysis of Variance are executed to study the performance characteristics of the input parameters on the output parameters. The whole work is followed by a validation test and hence confirming the obtained values. Thus, it reveals the acceptability of the model. The work tells that Material Removal Rate and Surface Finish effect is more in Electro-Chemical Machining as compared to Electric Discharge Machining. For Material Removal Rate, Current and Feed are more responsible parameters for Electric Discharge Machining. In the same way; electrolyte concentration and Feed are more responsible parameters for Electro-Chemical Machining respectively.
