Parametric Optimization of Boron Carbide Powder Added Electrical Discharge Machining of Titanium Alloy

Abstract:

The present study deals with the Taguchi technique applied to determine the optimal process parameters of Boron Carbide (B₄C) powder mixed electrical discharge machining (EDM) of Titanium alloy. The performance characteristics like material removal rate (MRR) and surface roughness (SR) were experimentally explored for various input parameters such as discharge current, pulse on time, pulse off time and B₄C powder concentration in dielectric fluid. The planned optimal setting parameters were conducted and verified through experiments and analyzed using Taguchi technique. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that discharge current, pulse on time and B₄C powder concentration in dielectric are most important parameters affecting both the performance parameters.
