Abstract:

The effect of process parameters namely peak current, pulse on time and flushing pressure on electrical discharge machining (EDM) of titanium alloy (Ti–6Al–4V) were investigated by using three different tool electrode materials namely copper, brass, and aluminium. Kerosene is used as dielectric. The process parameters for machining Ti6Al4V are varied at three levels by using Taguchi's orthogonal array table. The responses such as Metal Removal Rate (MRR), Tool Wear Rate (TWR), and Surface Roughness (SR) are measured and the most significant parameter was confirmed by ANOVA (Analysis Of Variance). The test result shows that copper electrode material possesses higher MRR, less TWR as compared to brass and aluminium. Brass and copper tools has good surface finish as compared with aluminium. The finest electrode material for machining of Ti6Al4V alpha beta alloy in EDM process was in the order of copper, brass and aluminium.
