Abstract—The objective of this research work is to perform boring operation in electrical discharge machining process on AISI 304 workpiece material. Boring operation was successfully accomplished using tool actuation on radial path in electrical discharge machining process. The diameter of predrilled hole cavities were enlarged to 10 mm bore diameter. The boring operations were performed with three different diameter of tool electrode i.e. 7, 8 and 9 mm at three different orbital speed of tool electrode i.e. 0.05, 0.09 and 0.13 mm/s. The machining responses were measured in terms of material removal rate (MRR), surface roughness (Ra) and radial overcut (Oc).
Index Terms—Boring, EDM, orbital, radial.
