Comparative study for material removal rate, surface finish and electrode wear rate on die sinking edm

The electrical discharge machining (EDM) is one of non conventional machining process where the erosion of the work piece take place based on the the1mal energy between the electrode and the work piece. Two different work piece materials were machined using die sinking EDM to study the characteri...
