The aim of present study is to determine the optimum parameters on machining the material SS304 and nickel-coated copper tool by micro electrochemical machining. The coating process is done by an electroplating method. The parameters involved in the process are feed rate (0.5, 0.6, 0.7) duty ratio (0.6, 0.7, 0.8) voltage (16, 17, 18). Taguchi approach is used to find out the optimum machining parameter and the Minitab 17software is used to achieve better results. Copper coated tool life is improved when compared to the normal tool. The material removal rates (MRR), tapered angle, circularity, overcut are calculated by measuring the values on the video measuring machine.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
