Abstract:

In this paper, wire electrical discharge machining of D3 tool steel is studied. Influence of pulse-on time, pulse-off time, peak current and wire speed are investigated for MRR, dimensional deviation, gap current and machining time, during intricate machining of D3 tool steel. Taguchi method is used for single characteristics optimization and to optimize all four process parameters simultaneously, Grey relational analysis (GRA) is employed along with Taguchi method. Through GRA, grey relational grade is used as a performance index to determine the optimal setting of process parameters for multi-objective characteristics. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) shows that the peak current is the most significant parameters affecting on multi-objective characteristics. Confirmatory results, proves the potential of GRA to optimize process parameters successfully for multi-objective characteristics.

Multi-objective optimization in Turning of EN31 steel using Taguchi based grey relational analysis

Machining can be outlined as the process of taking away material from a work piece in the grade of chips. During a machining process, isolated of the energy is turned into heat energy through the detritions yielded between the tool and the work piece and the plastic deformation of the work material in the machining zone. Turning is charmed by several constituents, for example, the cutting speed...

Parametric Optimization of Wedm Using Grey Relational Analysis with Taguchi Method

Wire EDM is one of the latest advanced micro-machining techniques, where a thin wire (Ǿ= 0.25 mm) of tool electrode is fed on the work piece which gradually shears off the material during the machining process. This micro-machining process may help overcome the limitations and restriction faced during conventional mechanical machining process. This paper is based on wire-EDM machining of a part...
