Machining of Titanium alloys is difficult due to their chemical and physical properties namely excellent strength, chemical reactivity and low thermal conductivity. Traditional machining of such materials leads to formation of continuous chips and tool bits are subjected to chatter which leads to formation of poor surface on machined surface. In this study, Wire-EDM one of the most popular unconventional machining process which was used to machine such difficult-to-cut materials. Effect of Wire-EDM process parameters namely peak current, pulse-on- time, pulse-off-time, servo voltage on MRRand SR was investigated by Taguchi method. 0.25 mm brass wire was used in this process as electrode material. A surface roughness tester (Surftest 301) was used to measure surface roughness value of the machined work surface. A multi-response optimization technique was then utilized to optimize Wire-EDM process parameters for achieving maximum MRR and minimum SR simultaneously.

In this study, the optimization of recast layer thickness and surface roughness (SR) simultaneously in a Wire-EDM process by using Taguchi method with fuzzy logic has been applied. The Wire-EDM process parameters (arc on time, on time, open voltage, off time and servo voltage) were optimized with considerations of multiple performance characteristics, i.e., recast layer thickness and SR. Based on the Taguchi method, an L18 mixed-orthogonal array table was chosen for the experiments. Fuzzy reasoning of the multiple performance characteristics has been developed based on fuzzy logic, which then converted into a fuzzy reasoning grade or FRG. As a result, the optimization of complicated multiple performance characteristics was transformed into the optimization of single response performance index. Experimental results have shown that machining performance characteristics of Wire-EDM process can be improved effectively through the combination of Taguchi method and fuzzy logic.

In this study, the optimization of material removal rate (MRR) and surface roughness (SR) simultaneously in a WEDM process by using Taguchi method with fuzzy logic has been applied. The Wire EDM process parameters (flushing pressure, on time, open voltage, off time and servo voltage) were optimized with considerations of multiple performance characteristics, i.e., MRR and SR. Based on the Taguchi method, an L18mixed-orthogonal array table was chosen for the experiments. Fuzzy reasoning of the multiple performance characteristics has been developed based on fuzzy logic, which then converted into a fuzzy reasoning grade or FRG.
