Optimization of EDM Small Hole Drilling Process Using Taguchi Approach

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a process used to remove or cut a material into desired shape through the action of spark discharge between the tool and work piece. The objective of this paper is to optimize the independent variables to achieve better accuracy in EDM small hole drilling by u...
