Abstract

Magnetic field-assisted electrochemical spark machining (MF-ECSM) is an advanced triplex hybrid machining technique which is precisely feasible for non-conductive and brittle materials such as glass. The advantage of MF-ECSM is that presence of magnetic field assists in improving the performance of machining due to the effect of magnetohydrodynamic convection (MHD). This paper presents a parametric study to observe the effect of voltage, NaOH concentration, tool rotational speed and magnetic field intensity on overcut during drilling of micro-holes on sodalime glass by in-house designed and fabricated MF-ECSM setup. The regression model based on experimental result has been used to correlate the input parameters and response. Analysis of variance showed the significance of individual parameters as well as their squares and interaction. This model has been further analysed using MATLAB to predict the effect of individual factors as well as their interaction on overcut by displaying surface and contour plots.
