Investigation of finish cut of microelectrodischarge milling for nanosurface finish

In this article, the machining conditions to achieve nanometric surface roughness in finish cut microelectrodischarge milling were investigated. For a constant gap voltage, the effect of feed rate and capacitance was studied on average surface roughness (Ra) and maximum peak-to-valley roughness heig...
