Comparative Study of Electro - Discharge Machining with the use of Additional Rotary Tool EDM Performance During Machining of EN-8 Material

Authors(3) :-Malak Soni, Ronak J Rana, Prof. Alok B Choudhary

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 by comparison of EDM with Rotary EDM with the use of additional rotary attachment on EDM to improve its performance measures like Material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR). 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 compare EDM with rotary EDM. In this paper there is also a depiction about the machining and non-machining parameters used during the particular research work. In Present paper the research work done on rotary and EDM to improve its performance measures like MRR & TWR.
