Abstract

AbstractIn the present era of green manufacturing, non-traditional machining (NTM) processes are catering with best performance for machining of both conductive and non-conductive materials. Electro Chemical Discharge Machining (ECDM) process is materialized as a potential contender in the territory of non-traditional machining (NTM) processes. ECDM is a competent machining process which is hybridization of Electro-Chemical Machining (ECM) and Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) and also having advantages of both processes. ECDM is significantly used for machining of advanced materials, like, quartz, glass, composites, ceramics, super alloys and many more. The current article incorporates a review of various parts of the ECDM process including previous background, process variants, affecting parameters with their impact and best in class crossover approaches for upgrading the machining execution. A brief about future trends in ECDM has additionally been addressed.KeywordsECDMNTMECMEDMAdvanced materialsOptimization techniques
