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.

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.

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.

In the present work, an attempt has been made for material removal rate and surface roughness by response surface optimization techniques in Electrical discharge machining. Electrical discharge machining, commonly known as EDM, is a process that is used to remove metal through the action of an electrical discharge of short duration and high current density between the work piece and too. This work presents the results of a mathematical investigation carried out to the effects of machining parameters such as current, pulse on time, pulse off time and lift time on material removal rate and surface roughness in electrical discharge machining of 17-4 PH steel by using copper electrode. Response surface methodology and ANOVA techniques are used for data analysis to solve the multi-response optimization. To validate the optimum levels of the parameter, confirmation run was performed by setting the parameters at optimum levels. Material Removal Rate during the process has been taken as productivity estimate with the objective to maximize it. With an intention of minimizing surface roughness is been considered as most important output parameter. It is found that the good agreement of that current is most significant parameter for material removal rate and less for surface roughness followed by pulse on time and lift time.

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) consists of a non-conventional machining process, which is widely used in modern industry, and especially in machining hard-to-cut materials. By employing EDM, complex shapes and geometries can be produced, with high dimensional accuracy. Titanium alloys, due to their unique inherent properties, are extensively utilized in high end applications. Nevertheless, they suffer from poor machinability, and thus, EDM is commonly employed for their machining. The current study presents an experimental investigation regarding the process of Ti–6Al–4V ELI with high power EDM, using a graphite electrode. Control parameters were the pulse-on current (Ip) and time (Ton), while Machining performances were estimated in terms of Material Removal Rate (MRR), Tool Material Removal Rate (TMRR), and Tool Wear Ratio (TWR). The machined Surface Roughness was calculated according to the Ra and the Rt values, by following the ISO 25178-2 standards. Furthermore, the EDMed surfaces were observed under optical and SEM microscopy, while their cross sections were also studied in order the Average White Layer Thickness (AWLT) and the Heat Affected Zone (HAZ) to be measured. Finally, for the aforementioned indexes, Analysis Of Variance was performed, whilst for the MRR and TMRR, based on the Response Surface Method (RSM), semi-empirical correlations were presented. The scope of the current paper is, through a series of experiments and by employing statistical tools, to present how two main machining parameters, i.e., pulse-on current and time, affect major machining performance indexes and the surface roughness.

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.

The micro-electrical discharge machining process is hindered by low material removal rate and low surface quality, which bound its capability. The assistance of ultrasonic vibration and magnetic pulling force in micro-electrical discharge machining helps to overcome this limitation and increase the stability of the machining process. In the present research, an attempt has been made on Taguchi based GRA optimization for µEDM assisted with ultrasonic vibration and magnetic pulling force while µEDM of SKD-5 die steel with the tubular copper electrode. The process parameters such as ultrasonic vibration, magnetic pulling force, tool rotation, energy and feed rate have been chosen as process variables. Material removal rate and taper of the feature have been selected as response measures. From the experimental study, it has been found that response output measures have been significantly improved by 18% as compared to non assisted µEDM. The best optimal combination of input parameters for improved performance measures were recorded as machining with ultrasonic vibration (U1), 0.25 kgf of magnetic pulling force (M1), 600 rpm of tool rotation (R2), 3.38 mJ of energy (E3) and 1.5 mm/min of Tool feed rate (F3). The confirmation trail was also carried out for the validation of the results attained by Grey Relational Analysis and confirmed that there is a substantial improvement with both assistance applied simultaneously.
