WITHDRAWN: Parametric analysis on the effect of process parameters in ECDM through changes in geometry of tool electrode in ECDM

Abstract

The prodigious characteristics of glass require scrupulous investigation, so it is required to understand the behavioural performance of glass undergone through the techniques of micromachining. Currently electrochemical discharge machining is proved to be auspicious in fabrication of glass components, in the world of miniaturization. Although various parameters are already investigated, which effect the surface quality of micro hole fabricated through electrochemical discharge machining. Likewise the effect of tool electrode by utilising its different shapes, materials have analysed in past. But the consequence of distorted geometry of the tool electrode while electrochemical discharge machining, is not yet fully understood. In this research work, the microscopic investigation of tool electrode was utilised with the aid of image processing along with the modelling techniques at different combinations of process parameters while electrochemical discharge machining of borosilicate glass. And, the upshot of the study will be used to analyse the effect of distorted geometry of tool electrode at various levels during electrochemical discharge machining.
