Hole Making by Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) of γ-TiAl Intermetallic Alloys

Due to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion and wear resistance, γ-TiAl alloys are selected for aerospace and automotive applications. Since these materials are difficult to cut and machine by conventional methods, this study performed drilling tests using Electro Dischar...
