These focus on producing high quality products in time at minimum cost. The surface roughness is considered to be a measure of the technological quality of a product. Surface roughness is the one of the critical performance parameter that has an appreciable effect on several mechanical properties of machined parts such as fatigue behavior, corrosion resistance, creep life, etc. It also affects other functional attributes of machined parts like friction, wear, light reflection, heat transmission, lubrication, electrical conductivity, etc. Hence, achieving the desired surface quality is of great importance for the functional behavior of the mechanical parts. The quality of the machined workpiece is greatly influenced by the cutting conditions. In order to produce parts with the desired surface finish using EDM, EDM parameters should be selected properly. During non-traditional machining, it has long been recognized that the machining conditions affect the performance of the operation to a greater extent. These machining conditions should be selected to optimize the economics of machining operations. So it can be achieved by empirical modeling of performance as a function of machining conditions using design of experiments (DOE). The proposed work will be employed for investigation of the effect of EDM parameters on surface roughness and development of surface roughness and MRR prediction models using two level full factorial design.
