Original Abstract

Wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) technology is often used for the final machining of parts to the required surface quality without further finishing operations. At the same time, WEDM has a significant advantage over other machining technologies, and in the fact, it is possible to machine all materials, regardless of their hardness or toughness, it only needs to be at least electrically conductive. Aviation nickel superalloy Mar-M247, which is usually machined to the final form by parts using WEDM, was the subject of research in this study. In order to find the optimal setting of machine parameters (Pulse on time, Pulse off time, and Discharge current) for multicut machining, an extensive design of experiment was performed with a total of 54 circles, which optimized the cutting speed in the first and second cuts and the topography of the machined surface was taken into account in the third cut. Subsequently, an analysis of the topography and morphology of the machined samples was performed, including an analysis of the condition of the subsurface layer. The study also included the analysis of the lamella in a transmission electron microscope. It was found that with the maximization of the cutting speed in the third cut, the surface topography deteriorates proportionally, but it also leads to the complete removal of all cracks formed in the first cut.
