Effect of electrical parameters on the PMD-EDM performances of titanium alloy

This paper presents a study of the PMD-EDM machining of Ti-6A1-4V using Taguchi approaches. Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a potential process to machine such material due to the properties of non-mechanical contact between tool and workpiece and capable to machine intricate shape. Powder M...
