Nonconventional machining technologies have been found viable to manufacture various products from a wide range of engineering materials. Wire electric discharge (WEDM), also known as Wire-EDM, is one the important thermal type nonconventional technologies. Wire-EDM being preferably used by manufacturers produce biomedical devices including bio and dental implants. This paper presents an overvi...

WEDM is one of the important variants of electrical discharge machining (EDM) which uses the thermal energy generated between the electrodes for machining the electrically conducive materials. This method has been successfully implemented in common materials like aluminum, stainless steel etc., But its application in super alloys like Ti6Al4V is still under investigations. This paper reviews th...

Wire electric discharge machine (WEDM) is spark erosion in unconventional machining technique to cut hard and the conductive material with a wire as an electrode. The blanking die material SKD 11 is a high carbon and high chromium tool steel with high hardness and high wearing resistance property. This tool steel has broad application in press tools and dies making industries. In this research ...

In this paper, an experiment is conducted to optimize the kerf width of wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) on Aluminum hybrid composite with Zinc coated brass wire using Taguchi method. Aluminum metal matrix composites (MMCs) reinforced with silicon carbide particulate (SiCp) find several applications due to their improved mechanical properties for a wide variety of aerospace and automo...

This paper focuses on wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) of devices made from commercially available sintered neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) rare-earth magnets that have been magnetized before machining. We conduct an experimental study to quantify the effects of the voltage and capacitance of an RC-type WEDM machine, as well as the magnet polarity, on slicing rate, mean kerf, and variati...

In this paper, wire electric discharge machining (WEDM) of Titanium alloy (Ti-4.5Al-2V) is studied. In WEDM, the prime objective in cutting operation is to achieve the highest possible cutting speed along with desirable surface finish without sacrificing productivity. It is evident that a high material removal rate and a very good surface finish can never be achieved simultaneously in WEDM. Sel...
