Abstract

The previously published step-wise model (SWM) of cold electrodes erosion of electric arc heaters (EAHs) was modified for the calculation of workpiece removal rate (WRR) in electrical discharge machining (EDM) process. Modified model applies both relations the step-wise erosion model and the point heat source erosion model and takes into account the discharge current, the discharge pulse/pause time and thermophysical properties of machined material. The results of calculations show a reasonable agreement with data obtained experimentally by different authors about different materials and conditions.
