Abstract Micro slots and textures are created on Titanium (Ti) composites to improve its surface characteristics. Micro-textured Ti generally recommended for bio implants, automobile, aerospace components. In the current research, Ti-B 4 C nanocomposites were prepared by powder metallurgical route. cut surfaces Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) Technology varying current, pulse-ON time...

INSTRUCTIONS The diameter of silicon wafer becomes larger in order to increase the number of chips per one wafer. For such a larger diameter silicon ingot is mainly sliced by using multi-wire method, in which a long thin wire is used with slurry. In this method, several hundreds of wafers could be sliced at the same time. However there are still problems remained, such as large cracks, slurry t...

In this paper, a thorough review has been presented on the latest research work carried out for the enhancement of machining performance of one of the most commonly used superalloys that is, Inconel 718. The thermal energy has been frequently utilized for improving machinability characteristics of Inconel 718. The review of available literature indicates that plasma, laser, and electric dischar...
