Optimization of Electro Discharge Machining Parameters for Drilling Titanium in Small Holes Using Taguchi Method

Electro discharge machining (EDM) is a process that use an electric sparks to generate the high temperature and melts the work piece. One of the processes using this method is drilling process. By using this concept, an electro thermal mechanism between electrode and work piece can creates the hole...
