A Scenario on Dry-WEDM and WEDM for Industrial Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

In present day manufacturing industries playing the major role in the machining of new materials with complex shapes, intricate structure and difficult profiles. The improvement of industries and machines is accountable for product quality and accuracy, which are not satisfied in conventional machining techniques. The WEDM is advanced machining process, they are capable to machining the components which are difficult to machine, whereas Dry-WEDM is another method, it utilizes the gas instead of dielectric liquid, it exhibits lower corrosion, fine finish, decrease dielectrics and environment friendly. Development of WEDM is suitable machining option for meeting the demands of modern tool room application and metal cutting industries. The purpose of the article attempts is to highlights the application, improvement and future scope of Dry-WEDM and WEDM in industrial areas.
