Dear All

I am a student at Wichita State University. I am doing a project on EDM machine. I workpiece is 2.5mm thick alluminium material. I am using a 1mm copper electrode. Can anybody tell me what should be my tool wear ratio with reference to the work piece ratio.

Presently I am getting 6800 microns tool wear for 2500 microns of workpiece thickness. Is this correct or there is some error in my measurement/machine.

Please advice.
