Abstract
The aim of the current study is to find the optimum set of WEDM parameters which can maximize the material removal rate when machining circular profile of hardened SKD11 steel. Six main parameters namely Cutting voltage, pulse on time, pulse off time, server voltage, wire feed, cutting speed have been investigated by using Taguchi technique. In order to find the significant level of WEDM process parameters, analysis of variance has been adopted. The results show that Toff has the most influence on MRR with 46.21%. Confirmation shows that the proposed process for optimizing is reliable and can be extended to WEDM machining of other hard work materials.
