Abstract

This article presents an experimental work and investigation on electrical discharge machining (EDM) of Inconel 718 and 625 superalloys. These superalloys are used for making parts like turbine blades, marine components, and nuclear reactor components. The precise components made up of superalloys which have cylindrical, square, and hexagonal machined features are required regular estimations of cylindricity, circularity, perpendicularity, and parallelism. In this work, EDM of the above said superalloys was carried out and form tolerances were analyzed. The significance of input parameters namely peak current, pulse-on time (T on), and pulse-off time (T off) on the form tolerances were investigated. In addition to these, the influence of individual parameters were also analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) technique.
