INTRODUCTION
HIGH SPEED MACHINING
(HSM)

The use of higher spindle speeds

and axis feed rates to achieve
high material removal rates
without a degradation of part
accuracy or quality.

ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE
MACHINING (EDM)

Using thermal energy to machine

electrically conductive parts.

No direct contact between the

electrode and the work piece.

Carried out by means of electric

sparks that jump between two
electrodes subjected to a voltage

Submerged in a dielectric fluid.

The tool electrode shape is

reproduced mirror wise into a
work material.

(DOE)

ANALYSIS

The
main target of this project is to get a roughness between 23.

To get the roughness reading we are using roughness tester

machine Mitutoyo SJ400.

We take 3 times of reading for each machine result to get an

average of the roughness reading.

Analysis
1)

We were given a Mitsubishi VC4MCD0200 as our tools.

2)

From the catalog we can get the information and parameters of

the tools :

3) We set three types of parameter to get the best roughness surface.

Electrical Discharged Machine

(EDM) Analysis

1)

We use brass as our electrode (brass has a lower hardness then

mild steel).

2)

We set the roughness parameter to 1.6 to achieved surfaces

roughness between 2- 3 (the setting of the machine has an
error).

3)

The result we get is 2.11, 2.09 and 1.90 so the average is 2.03.

MACHINING TIME
HIGH SPEED MACHINING (HSM)

1)

ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE MACHINING (EDM)

Overall length covered by the

cutting tool:
L = 44mm + 31.4 mm + 18.9 mm
+ 6.3 mm = 100.8 mm
2) Formula for machining time:
Tm =
L = 100.8 mm
A = =
= 0.06 minute
Thickness
= 0.5 mm
Depth of cut = 0.18 mm
= 2.8

Tm = x 2.8 = 0.05 minute

The machining time for EDM to

complete the process is 35 minutes.

It takes much longer time to complete

the machining process compare to the
HSM.

CONCLUSION

We
complete this project successfully.

We are able to understand the different between both High Speed Machining
(HSM) and Electric Die Machine (EDM).

The most obvious different between both machining is the time taken.

Surfaces roughness for each process in the ranges of 2- 3.

The HSM took shorter time to complete the process compare to EDM.

For HSM process, we obtain tool wear of cutting tool will affect the surface
roughness.

Feed rate and spindle speed play an important role for obtain the desired
surface roughness for HSM process.

For EDM process, the tool wear will be affect for surface roughness.

Tool made from brass and the tool wear quicker and electric die machine
created for higher surface roughness for EDM process.
