In this paper, fuzzy logic integrated with the Taguchi method is used to optimize Wire Electro Discharge Machining (WEDM) process with multiple quality characteristics. Rough machining with EDM gives poor surface finish and has micro cracks and pores. Finish machining gives better surface finish but with very poor machining speed (MRR). Spark gap width is one of the important performance measur...

Chip evacuation becomes a relevant factor in the dry machining of aeronautical aluminium alloys, either when they are machined as isotropic material or hybridized with other materials. morphology and geometry highly depend on cutting parameters. Several works can be found literature focusing analysis chip alloys at high speeds but there is lack studies that apply low speeds. FEM simulation may ...

Due to the widespread applications of fiber reinforced polymer composites in various industries, the machining of these materials to reach the desired shapes, close tolerances and surface finish quality is of great importance. But the composite materials are anisotropic and are mostly prepared in laminated form and, therefore, they have special chip formation behaviour. Among the effective para...

In a turning operation, involving removal of material from the outer diameter rotating cylindrical workpiece using single-point cutting tool, there exist complex relationships between various parameters and responses. this paper, operation under dry environment is considered with speed, feed rate, depth cut as input parameters, well average surface roughness, force Dry reduces energy consumptio...

The operating control parameters of injection flushing type of electrical discharge machining process on stainless steel 304 workpiece with copper tools are being optimized according to its individual machining characteristic i.e. material removal rate (MRR). Lower MRR during EDM machining process may decrease its’ machining productivity. Hence, the quality characteristic for MRR is set to high...
