The input parameters in the process of sinking Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) are the essential enabling factors that need to be determined. In the present work, the influences of the EDM input parameters containing pulse on time (Ton), pulse off time (Toff), discharge current (IP), Server voltage (SV), work-piece diameter (dw) on the surface roughness (SR) in sinking EDM cylindrical shaped part of 9CrSi material were investigated. Taguchi technique and analysis of variance (ANOVA) have been used to identify the weight of EDM factors on SR. The results show that the impact level of Ton, Toff, IP, SP, and dw are 65.55%, 8.66%, 19.17%, 3.14%, and 0.76%, respectively. By analyzing the experimental results, optimum input parameters with the Ton of 6 ms, Toff of 30 ms, IP of 9A, SP of 3V, and dw of 10mm have been determined, that allow getting the best surface roughness. |
