Study on the Surface Roughness of Titanium Alloy Machined by WEDM

Article Preview

Abstract:

Due to the excellent characteristics of titanium alloy, was applied to aviation, marine, automotive, metallurgy, medical equipment and other fields. However, some of the characteristics make it machine difficultly, so the range of applications would be limited. In this paper, titanium alloy is cut by wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) and study the surface finish. The model of surface roughness is established which is based on theoretical analysis. Experimental results were analyzed and optimized by the theory of signal-to-noise ratio and grey relational analysis (GRA) method. The minimal surface roughness is achieved by the optimal results .According to GRA, get the order that is the influence of electric parameters on the surface roughness.
