This paper proposes a method for determining optimal EDM parameters based on discharge area from the physical model of a tool electrode. Main parameters, which affect the EDM performance, are peak value of currents, pulse-on time, and pulse-off time. Such parameters are closely dependent on the discharge area in EDM process. In this paper the discharge area is estimated from the CMM scanning data to the tool electrode. The method is very useful when any geometric information to the tool electrode is not provided from tool modeler or producer. The method consists of following four steps. First a triangulation mesh is constructed from the CMM data. Secondly, the z-map is modeled from the triangulated mesh. Thirdly, the discharge area is estimated from intersection between the z-map model and a z-height plane. Finally, the machining parameters are easily calculated by some known EDM equations to the discharge area. An example is introduced to show that the machining parameters are calculated from the CMM data to a tool electrode.

The method of electrical discharge machining (EDM), one of the processing methods based on non-traditional manufacturing procedures, is gaining increased popularity, since it does not require cutting tools and allows machining involving hard, brittle, thin and complex geometry. Modern ED machinery is capable of machining geometrically complex or hard material components, that are precise and difficult-to-machine such as heat treated tool steels, composites, super alloys, ceramics, etc. This paper reports the results of an experimental investigation by Taguchi method carried out to study the effects of machining parameters on material surface roughness in electric discharge machining of SM45C. The work material was ED machined with graphite and copper electrodes by varying the pulsed current, voltage and pulse time. Investigations indicate that the surface roughness is strongly depend on pulsed current.

Atomic force microscope (AFM) techniques are increasingly used fur tribological studies of engineering surfaces at scales ranging from atomic and molecular to micro-scale. Recently, AFM with suitable tips is being used for nano fabrication/nano machining purposes. In this paper, machining characteristics of silicon were investigated by nano indentation and nano scratch. Nano-scale material removal mechanisms are studied and the Taguchi method was introduced to acquire optimum parameters for nano machining. Also, Acoustic Emission (AR) is used for the monitoring of nano machining.

Silicon nitride is widely used as an engineering ceramics because it has high strength, abrasion resistance and corrosion resistance even at high temperature. However, machining of silicon nitride is difficult due to its high hardness and brittleness. Laser assisted machining(LAM) allows effective cutting using CBN tool by locally heating the cutting part to the softening temperature of YSiAlON using the laser beam. The effect of preheating depending on process parameters were studied to find out the oxidation mechanism. If silicon nitride is sufficiently preheated, the surface is oxidized and $N_2$ gas is formed and escapes from the material, thereby making the cutting process more advantageous. During laser preheating process before machining, high temperature results in strong oxidation which makes the bloating, silicate layers and micro cracks. Using the results of these experiments, preheating characteristics and oxidation behavior were found out.

Advances in EDM power supplies have made the process competitive in some areas dominated by conventional and numerically controlled machines. This paper will produce more comprehensive data than are presently available and will use this data in applying concepts of optimization based on manufacturer's guide lines utilizing neural networks. A method will be developed for determining the machining parameters of the EDM process considering the conflicting desirability of good surface finish, low tool wear and high rates of metal removal. By the proposed method, one can select machining parameters that can maintain permissible tool wear and obtain maximum machining rates on the system represented by the data.
