The Effect of EDM with external magnetic field on surface roughness of stainless steel

During electro-discharge machining (EDM), debris particles are generated in the machining gap from the eroded materials. If they are not quickly removed, arcing would occur, and this reduces the machining efficiency. The introduction of external magnetic field (EMF) is a research innovation which tr...
