Abstract
This study presents the wear behavior of 316L stainless steel material machined with wire electric discharge machine (EDM) at different machining conditions by varying the machining parameters pulse on time (TON), peak current (IP), servo voltage (SV) and wire tension (WT). Sliding wear tests are conducted on the cylindrical specimens using pin on disc apparatus and the worn morphology of the specimens are analyzed by SEM and XRD. The experimental investigation revealed that the wear resistance is highly influenced by the wire EDM parameters. TON and IP are identified to be the most influencing factors effecting wear resistance. At similar values of the product of TON and IP, the wear resistance remained constant and the wear resistance increased with decrease in the product of TON and IP. The obtained parameters setting can be used in die making industries where wear behavior is of importance.
