Single objective optimization of EDM machining on titanium workpiece using Taguchi method

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a process for shaping hard metals and forming deep complex shaped holes by arc erosion in all kinds of electro-conductive materials. The objective of this paper is to investigate how the polarity, peak current, pulse on duration, pulse off duration and servo v...
