Conventional machining process has the limitation when desired surface finish and
dimensional accuracy in geometry is required in difficult to machine aerospace materials especially for
the cases of drilling holes. Non conventional advance machining processes (AMPs) are extensively used
in the industry to machine for the complex geometrical dimension along with desired surface finish in
hard materials. Electrical Discharge machining with modification for holding and rotating the
electrode has been used in the present experiment for making holes in the Nimonic alloy. This paper
investigate the influence of gap current, pulse on time, duty factor, tool electrode rpm and especially the
polarity of the machine on Material Removal Rate (MRR) and surface roughness (Ra) for machining of
Nimonic alloy. It is observed that with suitable control of input parameters of Electrical Discharge
drilling (EDD), MRR and Ra both found to be improving together from 60 to 90 mg and 4.8 to 2.9 µm
respectively which confirm the viability of using tool electrode rotation in EDM machining.

Optimization of Process Parameters in Wire Electrical Discharge Machining of ...IJERA Editor
Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) is a specialized thermal machining process capable of accurately machining parts with varying hardness or complex shapes, which have sharp edges that are very difficult to be machined by the main stream machining processes. This practical technology of the WEDM process is based on the conventional EDM sparking phenomenon utilizing the widely accepted non-contact technique of material removal. Since the introduction of the process, WEDM has evolved from a simple means of making tools and dies to the best alternative of producing micro-scale parts with the highest degree of dimensional accuracy and surface finish quality. Metal matrix composites are advanced materials having high specific strength, good wear resistance, and high thermal expansion coefficient. To achieve this task, machining parameters such as pulse on time, pulse off time, peak current, servo voltage, wire feed, wire tension etc. of this process should be selected such that optimal value of their performance measures like Material Removal Rate (MRR), Surface Roughness (SR), Gap current, Dimensional deviation, etc. can be obtained or improved. In past decades, intensive research work had been carried out by different researchers for improvement and optimization of WEDM performance measures using various optimization techniques like Taguchi, Response Surface Methodology (RSM), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Genetic Algorithm (GA), etc. This paper also highlights the feasibility of the different control strategies of obtaining the optimal machining conditions. This literature review helps to identify the suitable process parameters and their ranges in machining of metal matrix composites.

Study of effects of heat treatment on the hardness and microstructure of weld...Alexander Decker
This study investigated the effects of annealing heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of welded low-carbon steel pipes with 0.078% carbon content. Welding was performed on steel pipe samples, followed by heat treating one of the samples at 850°C for 2 hours. Hardness tests and microstructural analysis were conducted on the heat treated and untreated samples. The results showed that the heat treated sample had a lower hardness and a more predominant pearlite structure compared to the untreated sample. This resulted in improved ductility and toughness for the heat treated sample due to carbon diffusion and grain refinement during annealing. Therefore, annealing heat treatment is recommended after welding low-carbon steel to obtain higher ductility properties.
Today, in the industry of aluminum, the D. C. casting of billets and slabs is playing the major role. The producers of these slabs and billets are many. The end users of the product are OEMs. The degassing technology for producing these aluminum slabs and billets is provided by very few. There are two types of degassing methods currently in use. One of these, vacuum degassing, is used primarily in the steel industry and thus not generally used in the aluminum industry. The second method, generally employed in the aluminum industry, is rotary degassing, which uses finely dispersed argon, chlorine, fluorine to remove dissolved hydrogen and various salts from melt. The challenges associated with producing aluminum are reducing porosity due to hydrogen precipitation during casting through degassing processes; which generates detrimental effects on mechanical properties of alloy castings and removing impurities like; the Ca, Mg salts etc. from the molten metal. Looking at the degassing systems provided by these players, are going to be obsolete as the environment norms will become stricter in the next decade, because of the use of Fluorine and Chlorine for removing the Ca, Mg, etc. impurities from the molten metal as the ozone layer is getting depleted and process becomes more cumbersome and hazardous. So, the innovation in the technology is needed; which leads research interest on development of the ultrasonic degassing as a better option. During this research authors would be using ultrasonic technology over existing technology to compare the results of conventional degasser units available in the market such as LARSTM, SNIFTM, STASTM - ACDTM, AlpurTM, MDUTM etc., and would be finding out the better operating parameters of ultrasonic equipment for the process for replacement of Fluorine and Chlorine based old technology with Ultrasonic Technology. This research paper should underpin improvement in the process and hence improved hardness of material by elimination of the fluorine and chlorine usage by replacing it with ultrasonic technology with suitable mechanical design, metallurgical criteria and thermal analysis consideration. During the entire research and development authors had carried out various operations like Research on thermal and metallurgical behavior of the molten metal and alloys, Comparison of results achieved using ultrasonic technique over existing technique, Formulation of conclusion; making ultrasonic technique a proven technology, and Identifying the further scope of research and development. With the experiments carried out, authors found significant improvement in hardness of the material produced by ultrasonic degassing as compared with the hardness of material produced by conventional degassing.

This document discusses a study that measured flank wear on different cutting tool materials when machining an aluminum-silicon metal matrix composite (MMC) containing 5% silicon carbide particulate (SiCp) by volume. A range of cutting speeds and feed rates were used. The best performance was achieved using a titanium-coated carbide insert, which experienced lower flank wear than uncoated or aluminum oxide-coated carbide tools as the cutting speed increased. In general, higher cutting speeds led to faster tool wear across all tool materials tested.

Abstract Electrical discharge machining is the most widely used machining process in industries. Its use is particularly intense when very complex shapes on hard materials with a high dimensional accuracy are required. However the technological capability of the process has limited application when there is a requirement of high surface quality and mirror like characteristics. Its operation is characterized by long machining time, high tool wear and uncertainty in the final finish of the surface. However for finish surface, materials are subjected to mechanical polishing after EDM, which is wastage of time and energy. To improve the efficiency and surface finish of the work piece, the abrasive particles of Aluminum oxide (Al2O3 ) are mixed into the dielectric fluid at tool-work interface. In this Abrasive mixed EDM, the Abrasive mixed dielectric fluid facilitate the bridging effect and minimize the insulating strength of the dielectric fluid. As a result it improves the material removal rate and surface roughness. This paper presents the effect of abrasive on the performance of the EDM process. The results of both the processes have been analyzed using Design of experiments to find the significant parameters and to obtain the optimum parameters required for machining. Analyzed results indicate that abrasive particle size and abrasive concentration and pulse current are the most significant parameters that improve the material removal rate in comparison with traditional EDM. A new experimental setup is developed for experimentation. The result shows that the MRR increases with the abrasive mixed EDM. Keywords: Material removal rate, Abrasive mixed EDM, Dielectric fluid, Design of experiment, Abrasive particle size.

Welding was performed on steel pipe samples, followed by heat treating one of the samples at 850°C for 2 hours. Hardness tests and microstructural analysis were conducted on the heat treated and untreated samples. The results showed that the heat treated sample had a lower hardness and a more predominant pearlite structure compared to the untreated sample. This resulted in improved ductility and toughness for the heat treated sample due to carbon diffusion and grain refinement during annealing. Therefore, annealing heat treatment is recommended after welding low-carbon steel to obtain higher ductility properties.

This document discusses a study that measured flank wear on different cutting tool materials when machining an aluminum-silicon metal matrix composite (MMC) containing 5% silicon carbide particulate (SiCp) by volume. A range of cutting speeds and feed rates were used. The best performance was achieved using a titanium-coated carbide insert, which experienced lower flank wear than uncoated or aluminum oxide-coated carbide tools as the cutting speed increased. In general, higher cutting speeds led to faster tool wear across all tool materials tested.

Abstract Electrical discharge machining is the most widely used machining process in industries. Its use is particularly intense when very complex shapes on hard materials with a high dimensional accuracy are required. However the technological capability of the process has limited application when there is a requirement of high surface quality and mirror like characteristics. Its operation is characterized by long machining time, high tool wear and uncertainty in the final finish of the surface. However for finish surface, materials are subjected to mechanical polishing after EDM, which is wastage of time and energy. To improve the efficiency and surface finish of the work piece, the abrasive particles of Aluminum oxide (Al2O3 ) are mixed into the dielectric fluid at tool-work interface. In this Abrasive mixed EDM, the Abrasive mixed dielectric fluid facilitate the bridging effect and minimize the insulating strength of the dielectric fluid. As a result it improves the material removal rate and surface roughness. This paper presents the effect of abrasive on the performance of the EDM process. The results of both the processes have been analyzed using Design of experiments to find the significant parameters and to obtain the optimum parameters required for machining. Analyzed results indicate that abrasive particle size and abrasive concentration and pulse current are the most significant parameters that improve the material removal rate in comparison with traditional EDM. A new experimental setup is developed for experimentation. The result shows that the MRR increases with the abrasive mixed EDM. Keywords: Material removal rate, Abrasive mixed EDM, Dielectric fluid, Design of experiment, Abrasive particle size.

This document discusses an autonomous network reconfiguration system (ARS) for multi-radio wireless mesh networks. ARS allows a network to self-recover from local link failures in order to maintain performance. It uses a reconfiguration planning algorithm to determine the minimum necessary changes needed for recovery. When a link failure is detected, ARS triggers the formation of a local group and designates a leader to coordinate reconfiguration. The leader requests a reconfiguration plan from a gateway, which is then implemented by group members to resolve the failure. ARS aims to reconfigure autonomously and locally in response to failures while limiting effects on healthy parts of the network.

This document summarizes a study on the influence of chemical admixtures on the density and slump loss of concrete. [1] Plasticizers and super plasticizers were found to improve workability at a constant water-cement ratio and increase density at a reduced ratio. [2] However, slump loss was also observed to increase with the use of admixtures and at higher dosage levels. [3] The study concluded that admixtures can effectively reduce the water-cement ratio needed for a given slump and increase the density and strength of concrete.

Pipelines are the least expensive and most effective method for the oil transportation.
Due to high viscosity of crude oil, the pressure drop and pumping power requirements are very high.
So it is necessary to bring down the viscosity of crude oil. Heated pipelines are used reduce the oil
viscosity by increasing the oil temperature. Electrical heating and direct flame heating are the common
method used for heating the oil pipeline. In this work, a new application of Parabolic Trough Collector
in the field of oil pipeline transport is introduced for reducing pressure drop in oil pipelines. Oil
pipeline is heated by applying concentrated solar radiation on the pipe surface using a Parabolic
Trough Collector in which the oil pipeline acts as the absorber pipe. 3-D steady state analysis is
carried out on a heated oil pipeline using commercial CFD software package ANSYS Fluent 14.5. In
this work an effort is made to investigate the effect of concentrated solar radiation for reducing
pressure drop in the oil pipeline. The results from the numerical analysis shows that the pressure drop
in oil pipeline is get reduced by heating the pipe line using concentrated solar radiation. From this
work, the application of PTC in oil pipeline transportation is justified.

The present work demonstrates the optimization process of material removal rate MRR of electrical discharge machining EDM by RSM Response Surface Methodology . The work piece material was EN31 tool steel. The pulse on time, pulse off time, pulse current and voltage were the control parameters of EDM. RSM method was used to design the experiment using rotatable central composite design as this is the most widely used experimental design for modeling a second–order response surface. The process has been successfully modeled using response surface methodology RSM and model adequacy checking is also carried out using Minitab software. The second order response models have been validated with analysis of variance. Finally, an attempt has been made to estimate the optimum machining conditions to produce the best possible responses within the experimental constraints. Dr. N. Mahesh Kumar | Mr. P.

Abstract
In this paper, the effect of chromium powder mixed dielectric fluid on machining characteristics of AISI D2 die steel has been studied. Peak current, pulse on time, pulse off time, concentration of powder are the process parameters. The process performance is measured in terms of material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR) and surface roughness (SR). The research outcome will identify the important process parameters that maximize MRR, minimize TWR and SR. The design of experiment has been undertaken using Taguchi method. ANOVA analysis has been used to investigate the percentage contribution of each process parameter for optimizing the performance. The study indicates that all the selected parameters except pulse off time have a significant effect on MRR. Current is found to be the most significant factor for MRR and TWR. With increase in current, TWR increases. Also, surface roughness increases with increase in pulse off time.

Optimization of Process Parameters And Dielectric Fluids on Machining En 31 B...IJERA Editor
The electric discharge machining is the one of the most desirable machining process for the materials which are having high hardness and good thermal conductivity. The EDM process surpassed through the technological barriers by overcoming limitations like processing speed, material conductivity, dimensional accuracy, and surface finish and so on. However, environmental impact due to release of toxic emissions aerosols during the process, poor operational safety due to fire hazard, electromagnetic radiation and non-bio degradable waste are the major problems concerned with conventional dielectric fluids (i.e. kerosene, hydro carbon, etc.,). To reduce the problems with conventional die electric fluids waste palm oil blended with kerosene is used. The process is mostly used in situations where intricate, complex shapes need to be machined in very hard materials. The objective of this work is to study the influence of four design factors current (I), voltage (V), pulse on(P on), and pulse off(P off) which are the most relevant parameters to be controlled by the EDM process over machining characteristics such as material removal rate (MRR) characteristics of surface integrity such as average surface roughness (Ra). Multi Objective optimization of process parameters is done by using TOPSIS

major, trace and REE are plotted in various diagrams to interpret the genesis of BIFs. Al2O3, Fe2O3 (T),
TiO2, CaO, and SiO2 abundances and ratios show a wide variation. Ni, Co, Zr, Sc, V, Rb, Sr, U, Th,
ΣREE, La, Ce and Eu anomalies and their binary relationships indicate that wherever the terrigenous
component has increased, the concentration of elements of felsic such as Zr and Hf has gone up. Elevated
concentrations of Ni, Co and Sc are contributed by chlorite and other components characteristic of basic
volcanic debris. The data suggest that these formations were generated by chemical and clastic
sedimentary processes on a shallow shelf. During transgression, chemical precipitation took place at the
sediment-water interface, whereas at the time of regression. Iron ore formed with sedimentary structures
and textures in Kammatturu area, in a setting where the water column was oxygenated.

Non linear analysis of Robot Gun Support Structure using Equivalent Dynamic A...IJMER
Robot guns are being increasingly employed in automotive manufacturing to replace
risky jobs and also to increase productivity. Using a single robot for a single operation proves to be
expensive. Hence for cost optimization, multiple guns are mounted on a single robot and multiple
operations are performed. Robot Gun structure is an efficient way in which multiple welds can be done
simultaneously. However mounting several weld guns on a single structure induces a variety of
dynamic loads, especially during movement of the robot arm as it maneuvers to reach the weld
locations. The primary idea employed in this paper, is to model those dynamic loads as equivalent G
force loads in FEA. This approach will be on the conservative side, and will be saving time and
subsequently cost efficient. The approach of the paper is towards creating a standard operating
procedure when it comes to analysis of such structures, with emphasis on deploying various technical
aspects of FEA such as Non Linear Geometry, Multipoint Constraint Contact Algorithm, Multizone
meshing .

Material Parameter and Effect of Thermal Load on Functionally Graded CylindersIJMER
The present study investigates the creep in a thick-walled composite cylinders made
up of aluminum/aluminum alloy matrix and reinforced with silicon carbide particles. The distribution
of SiCp is assumed to be either uniform or decreasing linearly from the inner to the outer radius of
the cylinder. The creep behavior of the cylinder has been described by threshold stress based creep
law with a stress exponent of 5. The composite cylinders are subjected to internal pressure which is
applied gradually and steady state condition of stress is assumed. The creep parameters required to
be used in creep law, are extracted by conducting regression analysis on the available experimental
results. The mathematical models have been developed to describe steady state creep in the composite
cylinder by using von-Mises criterion. Regression analysis is used to obtain the creep parameters
required in the study. The basic equilibrium equation of the cylinder and other constitutive equations
have been solved to obtain creep stresses in the cylinder. The effect of varying particle size, particle
content and temperature on the stresses in the composite cylinder has been analyzed. The study
revealed that the stress distributions in the cylinder do not vary significantly for various combinations
of particle size, particle content and operating temperature except for slight variation observed for
varying particle content. Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) emerged and led to the development
of superior heat resistant materials.

Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

I. INTRODUCTION
The ever increasing growth of aviation sector especially the fighter aircrafts has increased the demand
for materials that have excellent mechanical and chemical characteristics along with high temperature resistance
in comparison to originally employed various types of steels in aerospace applications. The developed materials,
such as Ti-alloys, Nimonic super alloys, new ceramics, metal matrix composites, silicon infiltrated carbide
(SiSiC), aluminium oxide,-titanium carbide etc. are usually employed in manufacturing of the components for
aerospace application. Because these materials possess unique properties like high strength at elevated
temperature, resistance to chemical degradation, wear resistance and low thermal conductivity etc. [1, 2].
However ability of these materials to retain their properties at elevated temperatures severely hampers its
machinability. Such materials are referred as difficult-to-machine or advanced materials [3].
In conventional machining methods, the materials are removed from workpiece by shears which
generate huge amount of heat at the interface of cutting edge of tool and workpiece [4, 5]. This results into the
softening of cutting tools and reduces the strength of the cutting tool materials [6]. To address the difficulties
faced in machining difficult to machine materials by conventional machining processes, researchers have
developed many non-conventional machining processes which are used at increased rate in the industries.
However its machining efficiency is very low in terms of material removal rate etc. These non-conventional
machining processes are also known as AMP. Some of these AMPs are: Chemical Machining Processes,
Ultrasonic Machining Processes, Electrical Discharge Machining, Beam Machining Processes, Electro
Chemical Machining, and Jet Machining Processes etc.
In spite of all the efforts made to machine advanced material, still the challenges are not over especially
for the machining of Ni-alloy and Ti-alloy. These alloys are extensively used in aeroengine because they are
able to meet the characteristic requirements of aerospace materials such as high strength to weight ratio, high
strength at elevated temperature, resistance to chemical degradation, high wear resistance and non corrosiveness
etc. Ni-alloy specially nimonic alloy posses these aforesaid characteristics along with high resistance to
mechanical and thermal fatigue, high resistance to mechanical and thermal shock and high resistance to creep
and erosion at elevated temperature. Ni-alloy and Ti-alloy is used extensively in hotter section of aeroengine of
aerospace vehicle in the form of turbine blades, compressor blades and liners etc as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
ABSTRACT: Conventional machining process has the limitation when desired surface finish and
dimensional accuracy in geometry is required in difficult to machine aerospace materials especially for
the cases of drilling holes. Non conventional advance machining processes (AMPs) are extensively used
in the industry to machine for the complex geometrical dimension along with desired surface finish in
hard materials. Electrical Discharge machining with modification for holding and rotating the
electrode has been used in the present experiment for making holes in the Nimonic alloy. This paper
investigate the influence of gap current, pulse on time, duty factor, tool electrode rpm and especially the
polarity of the machine on Material Removal Rate (MRR) and surface roughness (Ra) for machining of
Nimonic alloy. It is observed that with suitable control of input parameters of Electrical Discharge
drilling (EDD), MRR and Ra both found to be improving together from 60 to 90 mg and 4.8 to 2.9 µm
respectively which confirm the viability of using tool electrode rotation in EDM machining.
Keywords: Advance machining process, Average surface roughness, Material removal rate, Electrical

Drilling of holes in difficult-to-cut aerospace materials specially nimonic alloy with desired surface
finish and accurate geometry is beyond the capability of conventional machining such as drilling etc. In
machining four basic factors are considered w. r. t. material, shape, size and quality of finish required etc.
Problems of machining are associated with:-
Frequent Tool failure due to poor heat conductivity.
Difficult to machine because of their high hardness.
Difficult to make intricate shapes in these materials.
Difficult to make channel/cylindrical hole of miniature diameter in complex units
Deformation of tool due high hardness.
Poor surface finish and machining accuracy.
Wear on the tool materials results from combination of dissolution /diffusion and attrition process.
Localization of shear stress on cutting tool due to high dynamic shear strength.
Notch formation at cutting tool due production of abrasive saw tooth.
Rapid work hardening during machining especially in Ni-alloy.
Abrasion based tool failure due to presence of abrasive carbides in Ni-alloys.
Localization of temperature due to low thermal diffusivity.
Welding of the work piece to the cutting tool edge resulting in poor surface finish.
Reaction of the cutting tool with workpiece at elevated temperature, resulting in accelerated tool wear.
Non conventional machining methods are being used to machine the harder materials which have eased
out the cutting difficulties to some extent. To overcome the problems of difficult to machine tough and high
strength material by conventional machining, Advance machining methods are developed. Some of the of
advance machining methods over conventional machining are:-
Ease in Machining even with complex/intricate shapes and inaccessible areas
Better surface integrity and high surface finishing.
Precision & Ultra precision Machining (Micro & Nano Machining).
Higher volumetric material removal rate
With Adaptive control leading to unmanned and automated factories.
Computer control of process result in better performance, higher reliability, better repeatability and
higher accuracy.
Drilling of holes with High Aspect ratio
Material removal take places in the form of atoms/molecules or in group of these
In this paper authors have investigated the impact of the rotation of the tool electrode in Die sinking
EDM on MRR and Ra of machined hole with the input parameters of current, pulse on time, duty factor and tool
rpm. They have termed it as electrical discharge drilling (EDD) process. It is observed that both the parameters
have improved while machining with rotating tool electrode EDM process.

II. LITERATURE REVIEW AND OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
Literature Review
Literature on research on EDM for last 10 years have been surveyed and found a very limited works
related to EDD and particularly on high content nickel base superalloys. Jeswani [7] the first who was
successful in drilling of small diameter holes between 0.19-0.71 mm in carbon steels using tool electrode of
copper wires. Jain [8] used rotary EDM to drill precision blind holes in carbon steel and analyzed the effect of
pulse time, tool electrode diameter and depth of penetration of precision blind hole drilling in high speed steel.
Soni [9] used rotary EDM and sinking EDM both for drilling of holes in Ti-alloy with copper-tungsten electrode
and compared the results of both machining. He reports that with rotary EDM, material removal rate (MRR)
increases along with improvement in out of roundness in comparisons to hole made by sinking EDM. He
supports his finding and credited the increase in MRR to improved flushing of eroded debris due to tool rotation.
Mohan et al. [10] used hollow tubular electrode in rotary EDM and drilled holes in Al-SiC metal matrix
composite and confirms improved MRR, Ra and low TEW. The author credited the improvement to improved
flushing due to use of rotary EDM. Recently authors have reported for reduction in TEW by providing cooling
effect on tool electrode. Suleiman et al. [11] conducted the experiments by providing cooling to tool electrode
during machining of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) and reported for 27% reduction in TEW than that of sinking
EDM. Kuppan et al. [12] has drilled holes in Inconel 718 with 99.9% tubular copper electrode. He finds that
MRR increases with increase in peak current, duty factor, pulse on time and rpm of tool and substantially Ra also
improves due to effective dielectric flushing. Addition of additives in dielectric a latest approach in EDM
machining is also reported [13]. They have claimed that by using additives in dielectric, MRR and Ra both
improves. And a latest journal reports for the use of water mixed dielectric in EDM to reduce the environmental
hazards, which generates due to decomposition of dielectric [14]. Goswami et al. [15] studied the influence of
machining parameters on cutting speed and MRR of Nimonic 80A using wire EDM. They have investigated that
cutting speed (CS) and MRR increased with increase in pulse-on time and peak current. Yadav and Yadava [16]
carried the parametric study on Electrical Discharge Drilling of Aerospace Nickel Alloy. They studied the effect
of tool rotation on Average circularity (Ca) value on drilled hole by EDD process.
It is perceived from referred surveyed papers that MRR and Ra improve with rotary EDM due to
effective flushing of eroded debris. However there is limited information available on Nimonic alloys with
sinking EDM machine. Present authors have tried to highlight the issue related to MRR and Ra by controlling the
input process parameter of EDM machine along with tool electrode rpm and to analyze the effects of selected
input parameters for encouraging performance results.
Objectives of the Study
In the present experimental study, the main objective is to investigate the effect on machining
performance of MRR and Ra with rotating tool electrode used in conventional Die sinking EDM on nimonic
alloys aerospace material within the considered domain of selected input parameters.
III. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE
3.1 Development of the Set-up

Since Ra requires a very precision machining and therefore all possible precautions were taken during
manufacturing of the setup which was assembled on ZNC EDM machine. Prior to assembly on ZNC EDM
machine, the setup was pre-tested with assembled tool electrode for the total indicating run out (TIR) by dial test
indicator (DTI) and adjusted for maximum accuracy. An Electronic Automation Private Ltd (EAPL), India
made portable digital tachometer (model: DT 200 1B) was used to measure and calibrate the tool rpm which
was controlled by the variable speed controller.
3.2 Work piece and Tool Material
Ni-based superalloy of round bar 22 mm diameter is used as workpiece specimen. The chemical
composition of the workpiece specimen is given in Table 1. The workpieces were sliced of 6 mm thickness disc
by wire cut EDM machine. After measurement of MRR, the machined workpieces will be partitioned into two
half to facilitate the accurate measurement of Ra.

3.3 Experimental condition
EDD process was performed using rotating tool electrode. The tool electrode was fed downwards under
the control of servo system. The workpiece was connected to negative and tool was connected to positive
terminal (referred as reverse polarity) of EDM machine power supply. All the experiments for desired output
parameters of MRR and Ra were performed on reverse polarity.
3.4 Consideration of process parameters
Exhaustive pilot experiments were carried out to determine the range of input process parameters such as
gap current, pulse on time, duty factor, and tool electrode rpm. Based on pilot experiments it was concluded to
conduct the experiments in reverse polarity with constant pulse off time of 65 µs. The variation on MRR and Ra
were observed by varying the input parameters one at a time, keeping other parameters constant known one
parameter at a time (OPAT) study and ranges of input parameters were decided.

IV. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
4.1 Average Surface Roughness
Effect of current
Figure 5 shows the variation of Ra with varying current at different duty factors. It is observed that on
800 rpm of tool electrode and at 60% duty factor, Ra increases by 31.03% (from 2.90 to 3.80 µm) with
increasing of current from 16 to 24 A and similar trend is seen for all the considered duty factors at 800 rpm.
This is due to reason that as the current increases, the intensity of the sparks increases. This lead to the
increasing of higher energy of heat along with discharge power. This produces the large craters with appreciable
depth at increased duty factor which has been observed in the form of higher Ra values on machined surface of
work specimen.

Effect of Duty factor
Figure 6 shows the variation of Ra with duty factor at different tool rpm. It is observed that on 16 A
current and at 800 rpm, Ra increases by 2.63 % (from 3.80 to 3.90 µm) with increasing of duty factor from 60 to
68%. The trend is found to be improving for all the considered rpm and the Ra values are found to be lower at
increasing tool rpm. This is because of improved flushing of eroded debris from inter electrode gap (IEG) as a
result the surface roughness improves along with increasing of tool rpm. The improvement of Ra at higher tool
rpm is also due to the effect of improved melting of the materials from the machined surface at increased duty
factor.

Effect of Tool Rotation
Figure 7 shows the variation of Ra with tool rpm at different current and at 60% duty factor. It is
observed that Ra almost improves or seems to be constant with the increase of tool rpm for all the current. It is
noted that Ra has varied between 3 to 4 µm for all the current values. This is because of the effective melting of
materials and improved flushing as a result of rotation of the tool electrode.

3.2 Material Removal Rate (MRR)
Effect of current
Figure 8 shows the variation of MRR with current at different duty factors and at 800 rpm. It is
observed that at 60% duty factor, MRR increases by 14.56% (from 60.23 to 69.00 mg) with increasing of
current from 16 to 24 A and increases by 20.98 % ( from 73.21 to 88.57 mg) at 64% duty factor. The trend is
found to be similar for 68% duty factor also. This is because of intensive heat generation with increasing of gap
current and melting of the materials thereof.

Effect of Duty factor
Figure 9 shows the variation of MRR with duty factor at different tool rpm at 16 A current. It is
observed that at 800 rpm, MRR increases by 16.31 % (from 60.00 to 69.79 mg) with increasing of duty factor
from 60 to 68% and at 1200 rpm it has been increased by 5.15% (from 78.00 to 82.02 mg). This is also credited
to the improved flushing of eroded debris from inter electrode gap (IEG) along with the increased heat energy
due to the increased duty factor.

Effect of Tool Rotation
Figure 10 shows the variation of MRR with tool rpm at different current and at 60% duty factor. It is
observed that MRR increases with the increase of tool rpm for all the current. It is noted that at increased value
of current (at 24 A), MRR has been found to be maximum which has varied from 74 to 81.23 mg. This is
because of the effective melting of materials with increasing of current along with increasing of tool rpm. The
increasing of tool rpm has certainly enhanced the flushing of eroded debris from the machined surface, as result
MRR improved.

V. CONCLUSIONS
Following conclusions have been derived from the above study:
1. Materials have been developed to meet the challenges of ever increasing demand of high temperature
resistance, light in weight along with enhanced strength materials, but the machining processes have to
be developed for cheaper, reliable and easier machining processes.
2. The developed EDD process has been able to machine such difficult to cut materials with enhanced
performances as this experimental study of nickel based super alloy confirms.
3. MRR has been increasing with the increasing of tool RPM and at the same time Ra has also been
improved. The minimum MRR has found to be of 60 mg/min which is adequately enhanced. Also
there has been an overall increase of 50% in MRR from 60 mg/min within the considered and
controlled parameters of the present EDD process.
4. The observed Ra is found to be in between 3-4µm, which is very nominal for such superalloy materials,
which can be further easily improved with light grade emery paper polishing.
5. Since the present experiment (EDD) has been very successful on high precipitation materials and hence
authors confirm that future scope of EDD can be further explored for machining of ever developing
such materials.
