Time Estimation for Sinking EDM Operations
Although EDM is widely used in industry, little research has been undertaken into the complex probleM of accurately estimating the machining time. Often estimation errors of 200% and more occur. This paper introduces a new concept for accurately estimating the machining time for sinking EDM operations. The concept is based on machine dependent reference values on which a correction factor is applied to take deviations from the reference, due to flushing and efficiency, into account. A validation of the proposed concept showed that for the machining of prismatic cavity shapes a huge reduction of the estimation error is achieved compared to existing methods.
