Efficient dielectric fluid approach in electrodischarge finish machining on the material surface roughness of titanium alloy Ti-621/0.8

This study was developed to reveal the correlation between current intensity and pulse off time with surface roughness of Ti-621/0.8 in fine EDM machining, in a unique manner of dielectric fluid approach. Depth of cut was taken in consideration to be not as high 1 gm due to the fact that good results were taken for more less heights before. In the case of Ti alloy (Ti-621/0.8) bar, EDM machining with low parameters (limited 110 V) is a delicate process, in which reaching SR under 1 gm is a challenge. Cooper and Graphite electrodes were used, die sinker oil dielectric from machine manufacture was used, without thermal modification to workpiece or electrode, just active dielectric compensatory fluid pumping solution with 0.5 MPa.
