Surface alloying of Ti-6Al-4V using Cu-TaC composite electrode during electrical discharge machining

This paper presents investigation on the alloying capability of Cu-TaC electrode during electrical discharge machining (EDM). The electrode produced through powder metallurgy technique was used in machining alpha-beta titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) under different machining conditions. EDM experiments w...
