RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Mouralova, Katerina A1 Bednar, Josef A1 Kovar, Jiri A1 Mach, Jindrich T1 Evaluation of MRR after WEDM Depending on the Resulting Surface JF Manufacturing Technology Journal YR 2016 VO 16 IS 2 SP 396 OP 401 DO 10.21062/ujep/x.2016/a/1213-2489/MT/16/2/396 UL https://journalmt.com/artkey/mft-201602-0016.php AB The aim of this article is to evaluate the material removal rate (MRR) after wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) and subsequent characteristics of the machined surface. For efficient processing, the aim is to achieve the highest MRR values but with regard to the preserving of required quality and functional characteristics of the surface. During the electrical discharge of material removal craters occur on the workpiece surface and due to diffusion process here premixed and melted material of fodder and wire electrodes cling. As a result of melting and fast cooling down of the workpiece material microcracks may occur on its surface.
