Abstract

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a non-conventional machining process in which the machining takes place through spark erosion between tool electrode and workpiece. EDM is used for hard materials which are generally difficult to machine using conventional machining method. Research has been done on EDM to improve its performance measures like Material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR), surface roughness (SR) and dimensional accuracy. Various researchers have performed the work on various types of EDMs like Die Sinking EDM, Dry EDM, Powder Mixed EDM (PMEDM) and Wire EDM (WEDM) etc. In this paper objective is to review the research done on EDM assisted with rotary tool. In this paper there is also a depiction about the machining and non-machining parameters used during the particular research work. Present paper reviews the research work done on rotary and orbital EDM to improve its performance measures like MRR, TWR and SR.
