Monel K-500, a nickel–copper based alloy, is a very hard and tough material. Machining of such hard and tough materials always becomes a challenge for industry and this has been resolved by wire electric discharge machining (WEDM), a popular non-conventional machining method used for machining tough and hard materials having complex shapes. For the first time reported in this present research work is an experimental investigation executed on Ni-27Cu-3.15Al-2Fe-1.5Mn based superalloy using WEDM to model cutting rate (CR) and surface roughness (SR) using response surface methodology (RSM). The process parameters have been selected as pulse-on time, pulse-off time, spark-gap voltage and wire-feed rate. Experiments have been planned according to the central composite design (CCD). The results show that pulse-on time has a direct effect on CR while the pulse-off time has a reverse effect. The CR increases as pulse-on time increases, and decreases as pulse-off time increases. SR increases as pulse-on time increases, and decreases as pulse-off time increases. Furthermore, increase in spark-gap voltage decreases CR and SR both. The wire feed-rate has a negligible effect for both the response parameters. The optimized values of CR and SR achieved through multi-response optimization are 2.48 mm/min and 2.12 µm, respectively.

This paper present an investigation on cutting speed of ultrasonic vibration assisted wire electrical discharge machining (US-WEDM) for High carbon high chromium D3 Steel. An extensive research study was carried out with an aim to select the optimum cutting condition with the varying amplitude of vibration in order to get the optimum cutting speed for the proposed set-up. The process was mathematically modeled using the response parameters, i.e. cutting speed under a range of control parameters and the main influencing factors were determined for cutting speed criteria Taguchi’s experimentation methodology indicated the contribution of amplitude of vibration (P=6.16%), pulse on time (P=14.54%), pulse off time (P=73.16%) and peak current (P=5.94%). Finally, the optimum parametric setting for different cutting speed arising out of study has synthesized as amplitude of vibration at level 3 (18μm), peak current level 1 (100 units), pulse on time level 2 (118 μ sec) and pulse off time level 2 (46 μ sec) and analyses in this study.

This paper introduces an experimental study on the influence of electrical discharge machining (EDM) cylindrical shaped parts made of 90CrSi tool steel. In this work, some experiments were designed and analysed based on Taguchi method. Also, four input parameters including the pulse on time, the pulse off time, the current, and the server voltage were investigated. The influence of these parameters on the surface roughness were estimated by analysing variance. In addition, the optimum input parameters were found for getting the minimum surface roughness.

Wire Electric Discharge Machining (WEDM) is a non-traditional process of material from conductive material to produce parts with intricate shape and profiles. In the present work, an attempt has been made to optimization the machining conditions for maximum material removal rate, minimise kerf width based on (L9 Orthogonal Array) Taguchi method. Experiments, based on Taguchi’s parameters design, were carried out to effect of machining parameters, like pulse-on-time (TON), pulse-off-time (TOFF), peak current (IP), and wire feed (WF) on the material removal rate and kerf width. The importance of the cutting parameters on the cutting performance outputs is determined by using the variance analysis (ANOVA). The variation of MRR and kerf width with cutting parameters is modeled by using a regression analysis method.

In this research work, EDM investigation of Al7075-B4C-flyash hybrid metal matrix nanocomposites (HMMNCs) was performed. Taguchi method was used to improve the machinability coupled with response surface methodology (RSM) to estimate the relationship between the machining parameters and performance measures. Experiments were conducted using the L18 full-factorial design with a mixed orthogonal array. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine the effects of the machining parameters viz. voltage (V), current (I), pulse-on-time (Ton) and pulse-off-time (Toff) on tool wear rate (TWR) and surface roughness (SR). The analysis results revealed that the current was the dominant factor affecting the performance measures (62.87% for TWR and 78.82% for SR). The RSM models show very close relation with the experimental and the predicted values with the R2 values of 98.91% and 97.35% for TWR and SR respectively. The Taguchi method can effectively optimize the EDM parameters and confirmation test results showed the minimum error of 6.00% for TWR and 9.67% for SR.

The machining ability of Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) die-sinking on material characteristics of LM6 (Al-Sil2) is studied. This is due to the machining process on sharp edge, pocket, deep slot and micro hole cannot be performed by milling and turning machine. The objective of this paper is to determine the relationship between the machining parameters such as pulse on time, pulse off time, peak current and voltage on material removal rate (MRR) that are electrode wear rate (EWR) and surface roughness (Ra). Graphite tool of diameter 15mm was chosen as an electrode. Taguchi method is used as analysis technique to develop experimental matrix that is used to optimize the MRR, EWR and Ra. The analysis was done by using the Minitab software version 16. It is found that the current and pulse off time are significantly effected the MRR, EWR and Ra while pulse on time and voltage are less significant factors that affected the responses. From the Taguchi method, the best setting of optimum value was obtained. Thus, it shows that Taguchi method is the best quality tools that can be applied for production.

The input parameters in the process of sinking Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) are the essential enabling factors that need to be determined. In the present work, the influences of the EDM input parameters containing pulse on time (Ton), pulse off time (Toff), discharge current (IP), Server voltage (SV), work-piece diameter (dw) on the surface roughness (SR) in sinking EDM cylindrical shaped part of 9CrSi material were investigated. Taguchi technique and analysis of variance (ANOVA) have been used to identify the weight of EDM factors on SR. The results show that the impact level of Ton, Toff, IP, SP, and dw are 65.55%, 8.66%, 19.17%, 3.14%, and 0.76%, respectively. By analyzing the experimental results, optimum input parameters with the Ton of 6 ms, Toff of 30 ms, IP of 9A, SP of 3V, and dw of 10mm have been determined, that allow getting the best surface roughness.

This paper investigates the Wire Electric Discharge Machining of Titanium alloy 6-2-4-2.Eight process parameters namely pulse-on time, pulse-off time, peak current, spark gap set voltage, wire feed, wire tension, water pressure, pulse peak voltage and servo feed are varied to study their effect on surface roughness and wire breakage. The experiments are conducted using one-factor-at-a-time approach. Moreover, a few random experiments are also carried to study the phenomenon of wire breakage precisely. The study revealed that surface roughness is directly affected by the pulse-on time, pulse-off time, peak- current, spark gap set voltage and wire tension. Wire feed, Water pressure and pulse peak voltage have negligible effect on the surface roughness. Moreover, wire breakage is predominantly dictated by all the parameters except peak current and pulse peak voltage. An optimum range of input parameters has been bracketed as the final outcome for cutting in terms of surface roughness and to minimize the wire breakage frequency.
