Abstract

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) has been extensively utilized in the precision manufacturing of difficult-to-cut material. The preparation of electrodes is of great importance for structured surface generation after EDM. Electrode wear is an inevitable problem, which affects the machining accuracy and efficiency of the workpiece. Therefore, the design and optimization of the electrodes are vital for the EDM process. In this paper, a novel self-assembly ball electrode for EDM of the structured array on the binderless tungsten carbide (WC) is proposed. The shape evolution and surface roughness of the structured surface was investigated. The result indicates that self-assembly ball electrodes have a great advantage in machining the structured surface arrays.
