This study aimed to determine the effect of discharge energy on the surface microgeometry of aluminum samples created by EDM, as well as to demonstrate differences between geometric multiscale methods. The results showed a strong correlation between the surface topography's geometric features and discharge energy, with the possibility of shaping surface microgeometry through varying energy levels. Despite significant differences, similarities in results were observed between curvature and length-scale methods.
The aim of this study is first to determine the effect of the discharge energy on the surface microgeometry of aluminum samples created by electrical discharge machining (EDM). Secondly, an additional purpose is to demonstrate the differences between the geometric multiscale methods: length-, area-scale, and curvature. Eleven samples were manufactured using discharge energies ranging from 0.486 mJ to 1389.18 mJ and, subsequently, measured with focus variation microscopy. Standard ISO and multiscale parameters were calculated and used for surface discrimination and regression analysis. The results of linear, logarithmic, and exponential regression analyses revealed a strong correlation (R-2 > 0.9) between the geometrical features of the surface topography and the discharge energy. The approach presented in this paper shows that it is possible to shape surface microgeometry by changing the energy of electrical discharges, and these dependencies are visible in various scales of observation. The similarities of the results produced by curvature and length-scale methods were observed, despite the significant differences in the essence of those methods.
