Abstract

Machinability of Ti6Al7Nb by Micro-EDM dressing was investigated and evaluated with and without vibration of the tool plate. Experiments were conducted at three discharge energy settings. Using a simple electrical energy model, the erosion efficiency of contributing pulses was calculated at those energy settings. It was found thaterosion efficiency is highly influenced by the discharge energy. From the experimental results, it was also noticed that erosion efficiency of normal pulses gets lower at higher discharge energy, whereas there was a continuous increase in the erosion efficiency of effective pulses with the increment in discharge energy. Moreover, the processes under vibration at any discharge energy settings yield higher erosion efficiency for both normal and effective pulses.
