SURFACE GEOMETRIC STRUCTURE CREATED BY THE ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE MACHINING PROCESS
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2010, Vol 233, Issue 5
Abstract
Electrical discharge machining, which belongs to the non-conventional group of machining methods is widely used for manufacturing elements made of hard materials and those having a complicated geometry. The paper gives an overview of electrical discharge machining. The author has conducted research (quantitative and qualitative) into the results of the surface geometric structure created by the electrical discharge machining process. For analysis purposes, an optical microscope, a scanning electron microscope, and a profilometer were used. It has been found that machining parameters have a significant influence on the shape and technological quality of a surface.<br/><br/>
