摘要
Increasing demand on micro-product has driven the development of innovative manufacturing process to this new requirements as well as the adaptation of conventional metal cutting process to these micro-scale applications. In the medical field a huge variety of products can be found in prosthesis, surgery devices or tissue engineering. This paper researches the application of the conventional EDM process to manufacture micro cavities with the objective to obtain how the process parameters could effects on the result. As a result the dimensions and shape of the micro-cavities are analyzed. (C) 2013 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
