Processing of Ceramics and Metal Matrix Composites with Electro Discharge Machining

Abstract:

This study explores and demonstrates the effectiveness of employing Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) for processing ceramics particularly Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) materials. Conductive ceramics can be easily machined and non conductive ceramics can be made machinable by doping them with conductive metal particulates. In a related experimental study the effects of the concentration and size of these particulates are analyzed on the machining rate of MMC components.
