“…In this paper, the most suited input control factors are selected for the work material, which are listed in Table 3 . Since not all the parameters influence the MRR, the working parameters (current, voltage, and pulse-on time) that have the most influence were selected using the reviewed literature [ 19 , 29 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 37 ].…”

“…The method then defines the levels of the control factors that need to be optimized. The number of levels for each factor is determined primarily with the help of operators’ experience and, to some extent, from the reviewed literature [ 29 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 37 ]. The levels of process parameters for DOE are listed in Table 4 .…”

“…For DC53 die steel, Nawaz et al [ 36 ] examined the effects of WEDM input parameters on the MRR, kerf width, and surface roughness. Similarly, Gavisiddesha et al [ 37 ] studied the effects of WEDM input parameters on surface roughness of composite material (AL6061/SICP) using pulse-on time, pulse-off time, and current as input parameters. Again, Taguchi’s L 9 OA was used along with ANOVA.…”

With the growth of the manufacturing industry, the demand for alloy materials with high hardness, toughness, and impact strength has increased. Since products from such alloy materials are extremely difficult to manufacture with high accuracy and reduced surface roughness using traditional machining techniques, wire electric discharge machining can be used to machine such complex parts with more precision. In this case-study-based research, machining factors such as current, pulse-on time, and voltage are studied to determine their effects on the material removal rate for AISI 1045 medium carbon steel. The Taguchi L9 orthogonal array is used in the design of experiments for optimization. Statistical techniques such as analysis of variance and signal-to-noise ratio are used to identify the control parameters that matter most in bringing about optimal results. Based on the results, the current is the most crucial control variable in this investigation. Moreover, the maximum material removal rate obtained was 0.7112 mm3/min with the obtained optimized values of current (I) = 16 A, voltage (V) = 50 V, and pulse-on time (Ton) = 100 µs.

“…Hybrid aluminum metal matrix composites (HAMMCs) are the foremost engineering materials due to their outstanding characteristics and applications. The machining of HAMMCs paved a new path to explore machining behaviors and their effects on the applications of these modern materials in the industry [22,23]. It was also found that the cutting processes of AMMCs are not completely explored [24].…”

Aluminum metal matrix composites (AMMCs) have become increasingly ubiquitous in the fields of aerospace and automobile businesses due to their lightweight properties. Their machining is a challenging task because of the presence of supplemented particles, also called reinforcements. As the wt% of the supplemented particles changes, the morphological and machining behaviors of the AMMCs change. The present work is focused on exploring the thermo-mechanical properties of AMMCs which would help in AMMC applications in the aerospace industry with a new collection of composites containing silicon carbide (SiC) and zircon/zirconium silicate (ZrSiO4) as supplements in wt% of 5%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. Uniform binary and hybrid sample pallets are prepared by powder metallurgy (PM). The said samples are sintered and then machined using wire electric discharge machining (WEDM) employing brass wire with a feed rate of 2 to 3 mm/min. Also, analysis of porosity and recast layer formation is performed via the microstructure, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Some interesting and useful findings are obtained which can extend the applications of AMMCs in automobiles and the aerospace industry. The results reveal that temperature and wt% are playing their significant roles in the changes in the thermo-mechanical properties of AMMCs. Mathematical equations via regression analysis using Minitab 17 and Excel are developed for the congruence of experimental data. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) is also performed. Hence, the most optimized relationships for the best machining output are established and presented in this proposed study.
