Effect of electrical discharge machining process parameter on surface topograhy

This paper was developed the mathematical modelling of EDM process parameters to predict the surface roughness of Ti-6Al-4V. The process is used in situations where intricate complex shapes need to be machined in very hard materials such as titanium alloy. However, the process generates surfaces tha...
