Abstract

Micro-machining of components has been emerged as a peak demand in the world of micro-manufacturing. Micro-EDM is proved to be the most suitable for micro drilling purposes. It is very essential to fabricate micro holes as well as features with very high dimensional accuracy and precision. The major drawbacks in micro-EDM processes are the low metal removal, tool wear and surface roughness. Researchers have carried out several investigations to compensate the various machining problems in the micro EDM process. So, there evolves a need for development of more sophisticated machining features in micro-EDM process combining with additional techniques. This paper presents a brief review on the latest advancement in ultrasonic vibration and magnetic field assisted techniques to improve machining efficiency and surface qualities of machined features in micro-EDM process. Latest industrial applications of micro EDM have been presented.
