A hybrid machining process combining micro-EDM and laser beam machining of nickel-titanium based shape memory alloy

Micro-EDM is a slow process as compared to laser machining, on the contrary laser machining lacks good surface quality. To overcome the drawbacks of both these processes, this paper suggests a hybrid machining process which combines laser and micro-EDM processes for drilling micro-holes in advanc...
