An impression of technology and investigation of built-up Electrical discharge machining (EDM)
Keywords:
automotive, dimensions, Electrode, categorizationAbstract
Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is unique of the initial non-traditional machining methods, based on thermoelectric initiative among the work piece and an electrode. In this procedure, the physical is removed electro thermally by a categorization of uninterrupted discrete acquittals between binary electrically conductive objects, i.e. the electrode and the work piece. The performance of the process, to a large extent, depends on the material, proposal and manufacturing method of the electrodes. Electrode design and method of its manufacturing also effect on the cost of electrode. Researchers have explored a number of ways to improve electrode design and devised various ways of manufacturing. The paper reports a review on the research relating to EDM electrode design and its manufacturing for improving and optimizing performance measures and reducing time and cost of manufacturing. The finishing part of the paper deliberates these progresses and frameworks the trends for future research work. Keywords: EDM, Process parameters, MRR, Electrode design, manufacturing
