To meet the challenge of higher speeds for higher production rates, carbides (also known as cemented or sintered carbides)were introduced in the 1930s. Tungsten carbide (WC) is a composite material consisting of tungsten-carbide particles bonded together in a cobalt matrix; an alternate name for WC is cemented carbides. As the cobalt content increa

This paper discusses the effect of aluminium oxide (Al₂0₃) addition to dielectric fluid during electrical discharge machining (EDM). Aluminium oxide was added to the dielectric used in the EDM process to improve its performance when machining the stainless steel AISI 304, while copper was used as the electrode. Effect of the concentration of Al

Recently numerous studies have examined the interrelationships among quality management system (QMS) and sustainable performance (SP) of organisations, but none of the approaches addressed the issues in a holistic manner.
