Optimization of Performing Parameters of SS-316 in Diesinker EDM

Subrat Kumar Barik, G. Sridevi

Abstract: Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a non-traditional process that uses electrical thermal energy to machine metals. It is extremely useful in machining hard materials. With the advantages, EDM has to offer and its presence as a common and useable technique, along with the other machining processes available to the industrial world, there is an added strain on the environment. The scope of this paper includes the optimization and analysis of dependent variables in EDM and the resulting outputs by experimentation on SS-316.
