Synopsis "Micro-Electro Discharge Machining: Principles, Recent Advancements and Applications"
Micro electrical discharge machining (micro-EDM) is a thermo-electric and contactlessprocess most suited for micro-manufacturing and high-precision machining, especiallywhen difficult-to-cut materials, such as super alloys, composites, and electro conductiveceramics, are processed. Many industrial domains exploit this technology to fabricatehighly demanding components, such as high-aspect-ratio micro holes for fuel injectors, high-precision molds, and biomedical parts.Moreover, the continuous trend towards miniaturization and high precision functionalcomponents boosted the development of control strategies and optimizationmethodologies specifically suited to address the challenges in micro- and nano-scalefabrication.This Special Issue showcases 12 research papers and a review article focusing on novelmethodological developments on several aspects of micro electrical dischargemachining: machinability studies of hard materials (TiNi shape memory alloys, Si3N4-TiNceramic composite, ZrB2-based ceramics reinforced with SiC fibers and whiskers, tungsten-cemented carbide, Ti-6Al-4V alloy, duplex stainless steel, and cubic boronnitride), process optimization adopting different dielectrics or electrodes, characterization of mechanical performance of processed surface, process analysis, andoptimization via discharge pulse-type discrimination, hybrid processes, fabrication ofmolds for inflatable so���� microactuators, and implementation of low-cost desktop micro-EDM system.
