Abstract
In this research, a machine tool with a tool wire has been developed for combined machining. Wire EDM for shape forming and abrasive machining for surface grinding are carried out by using the developed machine tool. Repetitive surfacing leads to 3 dimensional observation of materials distribution of a specimen. In this paper, we applied abrasive machining to cast iron and analyzed its surface by energy dispersion X-ray spectrometry (EDS). We discuss the feasibility of materials distribution of the specimen ground by wire scanning surfacing with a scanning electron microscope (SEM).
