The demand for miniaturized products having a glossy surface or nano-level surface is increasing exponentially in automobile, aerospace, biomedical, and semiconductor industries. The mirror-like surface finish has generated a need to develop advanced machining processes. The addition of powder particle into electric discharge machining (EDM) oil is considered a promising technique to achieve surface integrity at the miniaturization level. In this research, the Al-10%SiCp metal matrix composite (MMC) has been machined after mixing the appropriate amount of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) into the EDM dielectric fluid. An advanced experimental setup has been designed and fabricated in the laboratory for conducting the experiments. This proposed technology is called nano powder mixed electric discharge machining (NPMEDM). The input parameters of NPMEDM are also optimized using central composite rotatable design (CCRD) based on response surface methodology (RSM) in order to obtain the best surface finish and material removal rate (MRR). The MRR has been increased by 38.22% and surface finish has been improved by 46.06% after mixing the MWCNTs into the EDM dielectric fluid. The results indicate that the combination of parameters A5, B5, C5, and D5 might have produced maximum MRR, whereas A1, B1, C1, and D3 have produced minimum surface roughness (SR).
