External spur type miniature brass (ASTM 858) gears with 12 teeth, 9.8 mm outside diameter and 5 mm face width were manufactured by WSEM. The research work was accomplished in four distinct experimental stages viz., preliminary, pilot, main and confirmation. The aim, scope and findings of each stage are progressively presented and discussed. In essence, the investigation found that it was possible to manufacture miniature gears to high quality by using WSEM. Gears up to DIN 5 quality with a good surface finish (1.2 µm average roughness) and satisfactory surface integrity were achieved. The results suggest that WSEM should be considered a viable alternative to conventional miniature gear manufacturing techniques and that in some instances it may even be superior. This work will prove useful to researchers and professionals in the field of miniature and micro-scale manufacturing and machining.Materials Forming, Machining and Tribology,2195-0911ManufacturesMachineryEngineering designManufacturing, Machines, Tools, Processeshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22050Manufacturing, Machines, Tools, Processeshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22050Machinery and Machine Elementshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17039Engineering Designhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17020Manufactures.Machinery.Engineering design.Manufacturing, Machines, Tools, Processes.Manufacturing, Machines, Tools, Processes.Machinery and Machine Elements.Engineering Design.671.35Gupta Kapilauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut761830Jain Neelesh Kumarauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254230403321Near-Net Shape Manufacturing of Miniature Spur Gears by Wire Spark Erosion Machining2540606UNINA
