Sumario:Electric discharge machining is an advanced machining technique. Spark is initiated between the tool and work piece interface which has a gap between them. Low material removal rate as well as low surface finish is a major concern of this process. Therefore, Powder mixed electric discharge machining is developed. In PMEDM process, powders like silicon, aluminium, chromium, manganese, etc. are circulated along with dielectric fluid in a particular proportion. In this present study, aluminium powder is mixed in the dielectric fluid. The responses such as material removal rate, tool wear rate and surface roughness are measured by considering current, pulse on time and aluminium powder concentration as process parameters. Response surface methodology along with Fuzzy AHP TOPSIS and Grey relational analysis are used for optimization.
