摘要

Electrochemical Discharge Turning (ECDT) represents a cutting-edge machining technique that synergizes the fundamentals of electrochemical machining and electrical discharge machining. This innovative method offers a distinctive avenue for precisely machining hard and brittle materials, such as ceramics, glass, and composites, which pose considerable challenges when employing conventional machining approaches. This study delves into the feasibility of employing Electrochemical Discharge Turning (ECDT) for both grooving and turning of glass rods. ECDT exhibits the potential for attaining exceptional precision and accuracy while crafting cylindrical geometries across diverse materials. The applied voltage, electrolyte concentration, and revolution of the workpiece were altered during the experimentation using a cylindrical tool electrode. The overarching goal of this research endeavor is to find out better ECDT process parameters to achieve a commendable material removal rate (MRR) while simultaneously enhancing groove width.
