This paper focuses on the fabrication of high-quality novel products using a µEDM process variant called Reverse-µEDM. The tool plate required for the Reverse-µEDM is fabricated using Nd: YAG-based laser beam micromachining (LBµM) at the optimized process parameters. The Grey relation analysis technique is used for optimizing LBµM parameters for producing tool plates with arrayed micro-holes in elliptical and droplet profiles. Titanium sheets of 0.5 mm thickness were used for such micro-holes, which can be used as a Reverse-µEDM tool. The duty cycle (a combination of pulse width and frequency) and current percentage are considered as significant input process parameters for the LBµM affecting the quality of the micro-holes. A duty cycle of 1.25% and a current of 20% were found to be an optimal setting for the fabrication of burr-free shallow striation micro-holes with a minimal dimensional error. Thereafter, analogous protrusions of high dimensional accuracy and minimum deterioration were produced by Reverse-µEDM using the LBµM fabricated tool plates. |
