Modelling of material removal rate in EDM of nonconductive ZrO2 ceramic by Taguchi method

Electro discharge machining (EDM) technique, a noncontact machining process, is applied for structuring nonconductive ZrO2 ceramic. A conductive layer of adhesive copper is applied on the workpiece surface to initiate the sparks. Kerosene is used as dielectric for creation of continuous conductiv...
