Karunakar Journal on Mechanical Engineering 2249 - 0744 3 2 16 20 ECDM, MR, EDM, ECM, SEM, Surface Finish, FESEM, Stirrer Electro Chemical Discharge Machining (ECDM) is a well-known process commonly used for machining of non-conducting materials. The current work aims at studying the material removal rate (MRR), tool wear and surface finish of micro-channels machined on borosilicate glass using electro chemical discharge machining (ECDM) under different parametric conditions. Two sets of experiments were conducted. Through one set of experimentation, an optimum voltage value was found which was used for further experimentation by varying the concentration of electrolyte. The throughout study was carried out on a comparative evaluation criteria, both with the presence and absence of an electrolyte stirrer. February - April 2013 Copyright © 2013 i-manager publications.
