Abstract
Electrical discharge diamond grinding (EDDG), which integrates diamond grinding and electro-discharge machining (EDM), is a new hybrid machining process for shaping electrically conductive very hard materials. The process employs synergetic interactive effect of electro-discharge action and abrasion action to increase machining performance. This paper presents an investigation on the experimental study and machining parameter design of electro-discharge diamond grinding (EDDG). The EDDG setup was designed and fabricated, and experiments were conducted on high speed steel (HSS) workpiece under varying current, pulse-ontime, duty factor and wheel speed. The settings of machining parameters were determined by using the Taguchi experimental design method. The level of the machining parameters on the MRR is determined by using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The optimum machining parameter combination was obtained by using the evaluated S/N ratio.
