  Optimizing Machinability in Wire EDM of AISI P20 Steel Employing Composite Material Wires with Hybrid Neural Network Approach

  By B. Kiran Kumar, K. Siva Satya Mohan, K. Venkatesan, K. Tilak

  Abstract: AISI P20+Ni steel is extensively used for forging dies, plastic moulds, and automotive die components due to its excellent polishability, hardness, and homogeneity. This research utilizes Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) to process pre-hardened AISI P20+Ni steel, focusing on minimizing both recast layer thickness (RLT) and kerf width (KW). The performance of wires made from composite materials, including zinc-coated brass wire (ZBW), cryogenically treated ZBW (CZBW), and ultrasonic vibration-assisted brass …
