Effect of Powder Mixed Dielectric Medium on Tool Wear Rate in EDM

Ved Parkash, Deepak Kumar

Abstract :

In the process technology, as there are numerous advances at rapid rate, a large number of new materials are being developed every day. These materials have the combination of properties, like light weight, corrosive resistance, high strength etc., which is not easy to obtain in general. The major problem is that it is very difficult to machine the newly developed materials. So, in order to manipulate them, newer machining methods have been developed. Electric discharge machining (EDM) is one of the most widely used methods among the new techniques. The main reason behind the popularity of the EDM is that its capability of machining the hard to machine materials and intricate shapes. In this paper, the effect of powder mixed dielectric on tool wear rate (TWR) in EDM has been observed. Experiments were designed using Taguchi method and appropriate Orthogonal Array and experiments have been performed as per the set of experiments designed in the orthogonal array. Signal to Noise ratios are also calculated to analyze the effect of PMEDM more accurately
