Summary:This research article delves into the optimization of WEDM operating parameters through the application of Design of Experiments (DOE) principles. As traditional machining techniques give way to non-traditional methods for enhanced surface quality and intricate form geometries, wire EDM stands out as a prominent contender. Focusing on machining brass-based metals, renowned for applications like gears, bearings, and locks, the study aims to find the most effective process parameters. The investigation involves pivotal factors including pulse on/off, servo voltage, and input current, with MRR and surface roughness serving as key performance indicators. Employing the Taguchi L9 orthogonal array, the research dissects the influence of each control component on performance measures via S/N ratio analysis. Notably, the study underscores the malleability of wire EDM settings in enhancing both MRR and surface quality, effectively harnessing the Taguchi approach to attain an optimized parameter set.
