摘要:The present study focused on the multiple regression modeling and predicting the surface roughness of the Aluminum hybrid composite during the WEDM process. The hybrid MMC was manufactured by process named as stir casting utilizing particulates of Silicon carbide and graphite each in Al6061 combination. The analyses were outlined with Taguchi L27 design matrix. Mathematical relationships between the surface roughness and WEDM cutting parameters (Pulse on time, Pulse off time, current, gap voltage, wire speed and wire tension) have been investigated. The results show that the multiple regression analysis is a successful method for developing a mathematical model to predict the surface roughness. The optimum value of process parameters for the predicted optimum value of surface roughness (1.285) is pulse on time 106 units (Level 1), pulse off time 60 units (Level 3), peak current 90 units (Level 2), gap set voltage 50 units (Level 3), wire speed3 units (Level 1) and wire tension 12 units (Level 3).The optimum results are adopted in validation study and the results based on WEDM process responses can be effectively improved.
