Abstract
Electrode can be manufacture by conventional as well as non-conventional processes like Thermal spraying and Additive manufacturing (AM). In AM mostly Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and Laser Sintering (LS) are used. The selection of a proper manufacturing process has a very vital role when it comes to output characteristics of Electrodes. In this paper Authors have reviewed LS and FDM based EDM tool manufacturing processes. The purpose of this study is to present significant findings about effective EDM electrode manufacturing using LS and FDM. It was concluded that, the RP made tool electrode can be used where higher surface finish are desired and MRR and TWR can be neglected. The electrode manufactured using FDM techniques promising results for rough cutting and semi-finishing cut in EDM operations.
