Abstract

The current work is directing an exploratory study of EDM on SS316 using brass metal as the electrode. Copper and zinc are combined to form the alloy known as brass. Small tubular electrodes are made of brass materials. Brass is significantly simpler to process, but it does not have the same wear rate as copper or tungsten. Because new material may be introduced continually all across the EDM machining process, the EDM electrodes need not be resistant to wear or arc erosion.These uses current, pulse on time and pulse off time as input parameters. Gap voltage, dielectric, and cutting depth were fixed parameters in the experiments performed. The resulting observations are material removal rate, tool wear rate, and surface roughness determined to quantify the occurrence of EDM. To collect and evaluate the impact of various process parameters to improve response variables such as material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR), and surface roughness (SR) according to the three level and three variable (L9) Taguchi orthogonal matrix.
