The development of new, advanced engineering materials and the needs for precise and flexible prototype and low-volume production have made wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) an important manufacturing process to meet such demand. This research investigates the effect of spark on-time duration and spark on-time ratio, two important EDM process parameters, on the material removal rate (MRR) and surface integrity of four types of advanced material: porous metal foams, metal bond diamond grinding wheels, sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets, and carbon-carbon bipolar plates. An experimental procedure was developed. During the wire EDM, five types of constraints on the MRR due to short circuit, wire breakage, machine slide speed limit, and spark on-time upper and lower limits have been identified. An envelope of feasible EDM process parameters is created and compared across different work-materials. Applications of such process envelope to select process parameters for maximum MRR and for machining of micro features are presented.

The crater diameter and depth of the surface machined by electrical discharge machining (EDM) were used to evaluate indexes for EDMed surface. The influence of discharge parameters selected on the crater diameter and depth in mirror-like surface EDM process was investigated, and the optimization scheme was obtained. An L16 (44×23) Taguchi standard orthogonal array was chosen for the design of experiments. Experimental results indicate that peak current and open discharge voltage have more influence on the crater diameter and depth in comparison with pulse off-time and pulse duration. Also the results confirm that the crater depth is about 10 to 20 percent of its diameter while the near-mirror EDM conducted in the NAK80 steel with fine discharge parameters.

The aim of this study is to investigate the machining characteristics of ultrasonic vibration assisted electrical discharge machining (EDM) process using gas media as the dielectric fluids. The process parameters were designed based on Taguchi method to conduct the experimental works. The main process parameters such as machining polarity, peak current, pulse duration, air pressure, working time, and servo reference voltage were chosen to determine their effects on machining performance in terms of material removal rate and surface roughness for SKD 61 tool steels. The experimental response values were transferred to signal-to-noise (S/N) ratios, and then the significant machining parameters associated with the machining performance were examined by analysis of variance (ANOVA). Therefore, the technique of ultrasonic vibration assisted EDM process in gas media was established with the concerning features related to environmentally friendly, high efficiency, and high machining quality to fit the demands of modern manufacturing applications.

Wire electrical discharge machining is one of the important non-traditional machining processes for machining difficult to machine materials. It involves the removal of material by the discrete electric discharges produced between the inter electrode gap of continuously moving wire electrode and the work piece. The ability to produce intricate profiles on materials irrespective of the mechanical properties made this process to be widely used in industries. The present study investigates the relationship of various process parameters in WEDM of AISI 202 stainless steel with brass electrode.The experiments were planned according to Taguchi’s L18 orthogonal array and experimental models were developed. The important process parameters identified for the present study were pulse on time, peak current, pulse off time, wire feed, wire tension, dielectric flushing pressure, servo feed and gap voltage. The surface roughness of the machined surface was measured as the process performance measure. Analysis of variance test has also been carried out to check the adequacy of the developed models and to identify the level of significance of each process parameters. In addition to the developed models, ABC optimization has been performed to identify the optimum parameter combination for minimum surface roughness and the obtained optimal process parameters are peak current 11 A, pulse on time 100 μs, pulse off time 49 μs, wire feed 4 m/min, wire tension 10 N, flushing pressure 12 kg/cm2, servo feed 2100 mm/min and set gap voltage 30 V. Finally the results were verified with the experimental results and found that they are in good agreement.

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) produces complex shapes and permits high-precision machining of any hard or difficult-to-cut materials. The performance characteristics such as surface roughness and microstructure of the machined face are influenced by numerous parameters. The selection of parameters becomes complicated. Thus, the surface roughness (Ra) and microstructure of the machined surface in EDM on Grade 6 titanium alloy are studied is this study. The experimental work is performed using copper as electrode material. The polarity of the electrode is maintained as negative. The process parameters taken into account in this study are peak current (Ip), pulse-on time (Ton), pulse-off time (Toff), and servo-voltage (Sv). A smooth surface finish is found at low pulse current, small on-time and high off-time. The servo-voltage affects the roughness diversely however, a finish surface is found at 80 V Sv. Craters, cracks and globules of debris are appeared in the microstructure of the machined part. The size and degree of craters as well as cracks increase with increasing in energy level. Low discharge energy yields an even surface. This approach helps in selecting proper process parameters resulting in economic EDM machining.

In this paper, response surface methodology (RSM) and non sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) are used to optimize the multi-responses of electrical discharge machining of Aluminum Alloy 6061/10%SiCp composite. Experiment is performed to evaluates the effects of process parameters namely peak current, pulse on time, pulses off time and gap voltage on the responses material removal rate (MRR) and tool wear rate (TWR). The central composite rotatable design (CCRD) is utilized to design the experiment using RSM. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test is performed to validate model and to further establish the mathematical relation between process parameters and responses. Results are analyzed using ANOVA models. NSGA-II is used to optimize two conflicting responses i.e MRR and TWR. Finally results are validated by confirmatory experiment.

Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) is a widely accepted non-traditional material removal process used to manufacture components with intricate shapes and profiles. It is considered as a unique adaptation of the conventional EDM process, which uses an electrode to initialize the sparking process. H13 Hot Work Tool Steel has high hot tensile strength, hot wear-resistance and toughness. Good thermal conductivity and insensitiveness to hot cracking, making it suitable not only for hot die applications but also plastic moulds. In this study, it is found that most predominant factors for the maximum material removal rate which is 22.21 mm3/min are current which was found to be 200A and Pulse ON Time 125 µs, however rest four factors (voltage 20V, pulse off time 40µs, wire tension 8N and wire feed 7mm/min) has less impact as compare to the predominant factors. The most predominant factors for Minimum surface roughness which is 0.89µm are wire tension 10N, pulse on time 115µs and servo voltage 60V. However, rest three factors pulse off time 60 µs, peak current 140 A and wire feed 7mm/min has less impact as compare to the predominant factors.

As a successful solution applied to electrical discharge machining (EDM), powder-mixed electrical discharge machining (PMEDM) has been proposed as an upgrade of the EDM process. The optimization of the process parameters of PMEDM is essential and pressing. In this study, Taguchi methods and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to find the main parameters affecting surface roughness in the EDM process with SiC powder-mixed-dielectric of hardened 90CrSi steel. The PMEDM parameters selected were the powder concentration, the pulse-on-time, the pulse-off-time, the pulse current, and the server voltage. It was found that SiC powder exhibits positive effects on reducing surface roughness. The roughness obtained with the optimum powder concentration of 4 g/L was reduced by 30.02% compared to that when processed by conventional EDM. Furthermore, the pulse-off-time was found to be the most influential factor that gave an important effect on surface roughness followed by the powder concentration. The EDM condition including a powder concentration of 4 g/L, a pulse-on-time of 6 µs, a pulse-off-time of 21 µs, a pulse current of 8 A, and a server voltage of 4 V resulted in the best surface roughness.
