ABSTRACT
To produce reverse tapered
micro-holes using EDM , to a
production standard that could be
applied to real products in industry.

INTRODUCTION
The benefits of being able to control the degree of
taper are improved quality, consistency of product
and improved product performance due to reduced hole-
to-hole geometrical variation.

EXTRA EXAMPLEDiesel fuel injection nozzles
EFFECTReverse tapered holes are believed to give
improvements in engine emissions due to an
improved coefficient of discharge of the holes, and reduced
cavitation.

FLOW TEST AND DISCUSSION 1:The angular momentum of the tip of the
electrode increases as the depth of
machining increases hence causing even
more disturbance of the fluid and more
flushing. L=mvr
![Page 17: Micro-EDM drilling of tapered holes for industrial applications Reporter: Ming-Tsung Hsu ID:M9510257](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022033107/5697bfe91a28abf838cb6df1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
2:In the case of flow through an
orifice, Yoda and Tsuda [9]
showed that, by increasing the hole
taper or radiusing the
larger diameter hole, the coefficient
of discharge of the hole could be
improved. Q=μF√2ΔP÷ρ

3:If reverse tapered holes can be used,
then higher operating pressures are
not required as the holes are more
efficient.

CONCLUSIONSThe work has shown that high quality reverse tapered holes can be produced, showing excellent hole form, with hole diameter variation within 3μm and cycle times similar to standard EDM for straight holes.
The k-factor values up to k = 6.5 have been produced. The
quality of hole surface finish has been maintained at Ra = 0.3m. The results have shown that the process is repeatable
and stable.
