This paper accentuates the inherently persistent tool wear issue and its consequences in variants of micro-electro discharge machining (μEDM). μEDM-drilling and μEDM-milling, two important variants of μEDM have been currently ...

Abstract: Purpose Repetitive cutting nature of ultrasonic-assisted turning (UAT) has evidenced considerable enhancements in the machinability of difcult-to-cut materials. Pre-heating is another approach for improving the ...

Modulation assisted drilling (MAD) of a Ni-based superalloy; Inconel-718 has been reported in this paper. Drilling is one of the most critical machining processes during the manufacturing of various products. During MAD, ...

Industries have been pursuing a competent machining system that meets the necessity of sustainability without deteriorating tool wear or final part quality of components made from difficult-to-cut material ‘Inconel 718’. ...

The characteristics such as high hardness and shear modulus, low thermal conductivity, strain hardening of Nickel-based superalloys lead to high machining forces and temperature, poor surface quality and integrity, rapid ...
