- Abstract
Electro-discharge machining (EDM) is a widely accepted nontraditional machining process used mostly for machining materials difficult to machine by conventional shearing process. Surface modification by powder metallurgy sintered tools is an uncommon aspect of EDM. Of late, it is being explored by many researchers. In the present paper, attempts have been made to model the surface modification phenomenon by EDM with artificial neural networks. Two output measures, material transfer rate and average layer thickness, have been correlated with different process parameters and presented in the form of plots. The predicted results are matching well with the experimental results.
