Nickelvac HX is an amalgamation of nickel, chromium, iron, molybdenum etc. As nickel-based alloys have high-temperature strength they can be used in many applications like afterburners, blades of turbines, turbocharges, submarines parts etc. Wire electric discharge machining a non-contact spark machining was found to be the most precise machining process. Among the WEDM parameters, different process parameters like servo voltage, pulse on time, cutting speed override and pulse off time were employed for the examination. It was noticed that both response characteristics increased with the increase in cutting speed override and pulse on-time. In the case of servo voltage and pulse off time, as it was increased the cutting rate and surface roughness diminished. The effects of cutting rate on surface roughness and microhardness were analyzed. The response surface optimization was employed for optimizing surface roughness and cutting rate as it controls product quality. |
