Abstract:The influence laws of precision machining parameters on the cutting speed and surface roughness in MS-WEDM multiple cutting processes were investigated. Taking pulse width, interpulse, power amplifier and thread speed in the second and third cutting processes as the variables, multiobjective optimization related to the surface roughness and cutting speed was optimized to a single objective problem of weighted comprehensive score using comprehensive evaluation method. Orthogonal table L12(28) was selected to design the experiment, and the experimental data were analyzed using signal noise ratio method (SNR). The results show that the second cut with pulse width of 8 μs, interpulse of 5 μs, two amplifiers and cutting speed of 6 m/s, while the third cut with pulse width of 2 μs, interpulse of 4 μs, one amplifier and cutting speed of 3 m/s should be the desired finish machining scheme. Using such a scheme, a surface roughness about 119 μm and a cutting speed about 9960 mm2/min can be obtained.
