Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is one of the most common non-traditional processes for the manufacture of high precision parts and complex shapes. The EDM process depends on the heat energy between the work material and the tool electrode. This study focused on the material removal rate (MRR), the surface roughness, and tool wear in a 304 stainless steel EDM. The composite electrode consisted of copper (Cu) and silicon carbide (SiC). The current effects imposed on the working material, as well as the pulses that change over time during the experiment. When the current used is (8, 5, 3, 2, 1.5) A, the pulse time used is (12, 25) μs and the size of the space used is (1) mm. Optimum surface roughness under a current of 1.5 A and the pulse time of 25 μs with a maximum MRR of 8 A and the pulse duration of 25 μs.

Abstract It is well known that electrical discharge machining can be used in the processing of nonconductive materials. In order to improve the efficiency of machining modern engineering materials, existing electrical discharge machines are constantly being researched and improved or developed. The current machining of non-conductive materials is limited due to the relatively low material removal rate and high surface roughness. A possible technological improvement of electrical discharge machining can be achieved by innovations of existing processes. In this paper, a new approach for machining zirconium oxide is presented. It combines electrical discharge machining with assisting electrode and powder-mixed dielectric. The assisting electrode is used to enable electrical discharge machining of nonconductive material, while the powder-mixed dielectric is used to increase the material removal rate, reduce surface roughness, and decrease relative tool wear. The response surface method was used to generate classical mathematical models, analyzing the output performances of surface roughness, material removal rate and relative tool wear. Verification of the obtained models was performed based on a set of new experimental data. By combining these latest techniques, positive effects on machining performances are obtained. It was found that the surface roughness was reduced by 18%, the metal removal rate was increased by about 12% and the relative tool wear was reduced by up to 6% compared to electrical discharge machining with supported electrode without powder.

New tools for flat grinding of ceramics (Al2O3) are presented in the paper. Electroplated CBN tools (B64 and B107) were used in a modified single-disc lapping machine configuration. The results from experiments, such as the material removal rate and surface roughness parameters are presented and analyzed. Numerical simulations, based on the model for the shape error and tool wear estimation in machining with flat lapping kinematics, are also presented. The tool life of electroplated tools can be extended by choosing appropriate parameter K related to the process kinematics.

An investigation was carried out to find out the influence of process parameters on surface roughness (SR) and material removal rate (MRR) in electric discharge machine of Al-7%Si-4%Mg with 20% of red mud Metal Matrix Composites since electric discharge machining is a thermo-electric machining process, an electronic die sinking electric discharge machine was used to drill holes in the composite work piece, copper is used as tool material. Experiment was carried out to find surface roughness, material removal rate and tool wear rate by varying the peak current, flushing pressure of dielectric fluid and pulse on time. It was found that the surface roughness of composite metal increases with the increase peak current ,pulse on time and flushing pressure due larger and deeper craters on the drilled surface. It was also found that there was increase in metal removal rate with the increase in peak current and flushing pressure and slightly decreases with the increase in pulse on time due carbon deposits on the electrodes. Experimental analysis is carried using Taguchi’s Design of Experiment method with various parameters like peak current, flushing pressure of dielectric fluid and pulse on time to identify the key factors that influence the surface roughness, material removal rate and tool wear rate. It was found that the peak current was the most significant parameter that influences surface roughness, material removal rate and tool wear rate. The Taguchi experiments results confirm the actual results obtained from the numerical calculation.

Nowadays, composites are used in different parts of industries and it is one of the most important subjects. The most widely used reinforcements in metal matrix composites are Al2O3 and SiC fibers and particles which may be used in cutting-edge functional and structural applications of aerospace, defense, and automobile industries. Depending on the type of powder used, composite materials are difficult to machine by conventional cutting tools and methods. The most appropriate way for machining of these composites is electro discharge. For the reason of improving the surface quality, tool wear rate and material removal rate and reducing the cracks on the surface, Al2O3 powder was used. In this study, the effect of input parameters of EDM such as voltage, pulse current, pulse on-time and pulse off-time on output parameters like material removal rate, tool wear rate and surface roughness in both conditions of the rotary tool with powder mixed dielectric EDM and the stationary tool excluding powder mixed dielectric were investigated. The critical parameters were identified by variance analysis, while the optimum machining parameter settings were achieved via Taguchi method. Results show that using of powder mixed dielectric and rotary tool reduce the tool wear rate, surface roughness and the cracks on the surface significantly. It is found also that using of powder mixed dielectric and rotary tool improve the material removal rate due to improved flushing action and sparking efficiency. The analysis of variance showed that the pulse current and pulse on-time affected highly the MRR, TWR, surface roughness and surface cracks.

Electro discharge machining is a non-traditional machining process used for machining hard-to-machine materials, such as various grades of titanium alloys, heat-treated alloy steels, composites, tungsten carbides, and so forth. These materials are hard to machine with customary machining procedures like drilling, milling and hence electro-discharge machining is used to machine such materials to get better quality and efficiency. These materials are generally utilized in current industries like die making industries, aeronautics, nuclear industries, and medical fields. This type of machining is thermalbased, and machining takes place due to repetitive electric sparks that generate between workpiece and tool. Both tools and workpieces are inundated in a dielectric liquid, which has two primary functions. In the first place, it behaves like a medium between the work metal and the tool. Second, it is a flushing agent to expel the machined metal from the machined zone. Machining parameters like a pulse on time, current, wire feed the tool and gap voltage affect the output responses like surface roughness and material removal rate. The material removal rate is a significant parameter that determines machining efficiency. Surface roughness is also a vital parameter that decides machining quality. A lot of research has been conducted to determine the optimum parameters for obtaining the best results. In the present work, a comprehensive review of different types of EDM and the effect of various machining parameters on the surface roughness, material removal rate, and other response parameters has been done.
