Sažetak

Squeeze casting was used to prepare aluminium alloy-6061/titanium diboride (TiB2) to create a composite with varied TiB2 quantities. The metallographic structure, tensile strength, and hardness of the composite have been explored. The tensile strength and hardness of produced metal matrix composites increased when a particle of TiB2 was increased from 5 to 10 vol.%. This study uses electrical discharge machining (EDM) to investigate the output response tool wear rate (TWR). Variables in EDM operation were investigated, such as current, pulse on time, and voltage gap. The experiments were designed using the Box–Behnken strategy. Statistical approaches were used to analyse the experiments. At ideal settings for TiB2 concentrations of 5 and 10 vol.%, TWR was 0.2146 and 0.1749 mm3 min-1 and surface roughness was 2.47 and 3.03 µm, respectively. TiB2 is utilized in automobile disc brakes, an industry where components slide against each other. The alu­minium alloy-6061/titanium diboride has many applications as biomaterial and good prospect.
