Effect of maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) nano-powder mixed dielectric medium on tool wear rate (TWR) during micro-EDM of CO-Cr-MO

Micro Electro Discharge Machining (micro-EDM) is widely used for producing different types of micro features and micro components. Tool wear rate (TWR) is an important factor that affects the accuracy of machining as well as the productivity of micro-EDM process. This study examines the effects of p...
