Area of Science:

  • Materials Science and Engineering
  • Manufacturing Processes
  • Surface Metrology

Background:

  • Wire Electric Discharge Machining (WEDM) is a non-conventional machining process used for conductive materials.
  • Machining commercially pure titanium presents challenges due to its high strength and reactivity.
  • Optimizing WEDM parameters is crucial for achieving desired surface quality and dimensional accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the influence of WEDM process parameters on machining characteristics of pure titanium.
  • To determine the optimal WEDM settings for minimizing surface irregularities and maximizing dimensional accuracy.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of combined Evaluation Based on Distance from Average Solution (EDAS) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for WEDM parameter optimization.

Main Methods:

  • Commercially pure titanium (Grade 2) was machined using WEDM with a brass wire electrode.
  • Key input parameters: pulse on-time (Aon), pulse off-time (Aoff), servo voltage (SV), and wire tension (WT).
  • Response parameters: dimensional accuracy (DA), average surface roughness (Ra), and maximum surface roughness (Rz).
  • Empirical relations were developed and solved using EDAS and PSO for optimization.
  • Validation experiments and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were employed for morphological study.

Main Results:

  • Optimized WEDM settings predicted: Aon: 8 μs, Aoff: 13 μs, SV: 45 V, WT: 8 N.
  • Predicted performance at optimized settings: DA: 95%, Ra: 3.163 μm, Rz: 22.99 μm.
  • Validation experiments showed close agreement between predicted and experimental values.
  • SEM analysis revealed significant reduction in surface defects (micro cracks, cavities, globules) at optimized settings.

Conclusions:

  • The study successfully identified optimal WEDM parameters for machining pure titanium.
  • The EDAS-PSO approach proved effective in predicting and optimizing machining characteristics.
  • Optimized WEDM significantly improves surface quality and dimensional accuracy of pure titanium, reducing surface defects.
