Abstract
- Hybrid metal matrix composites are a class of material system, with two or more discrete particulate reinforcement. Notwithstanding their superior properties, their widespread application is constrained by the difficulty in machining them. Non-conventional processes such as electrical discharge machining can be applied to machine such composites. This work reports on the application of EDM to machine cast aluminum–silicon carbide–boron carbide and cast aluminum–silicon carbide–glass hybrid metal matrix composites and how the metal removal rate and surface finish vary in response to the various EDM parameters [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
