Abstract
Metal matrix composites (MMCS) have been exposed due to the advancement of contemporary materials. A metal matrix composite (MMC) is a composite material made up of at least two constituent pieces, one of which must be metal and the other of which can be another metal or another material, such as a ceramic or organic compound. Carbon fibers are extensively employed in aluminum matrix composites with high strength and low density. Non-traditional machining procedure Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a technique used to machine electrically conductive materials. The influence of input factors (voltage, peak current, pulse on time, pulse off time) on output parameters including material removal rate, surface roughness, and electrode/Tool wear ratio (TWR) is demonstrated in this study. The results will show the relationship between input variables with responses which is obtained from Design of Experiments (DOE).
