CONFERENCE AIMS:

Knowledge transfer regarding unconventional methods of materials’ shaping through their erosion or addition, which traditionally include electrical discharge, electrochemical and hybrid machining.

The conference is also an occasion for information exchange between facilities engaged in various aspects of unconventional machining, and thus facilitating new directions for EDM, ECM and hybrid methods, as well as Rapid-Prototyping-RP).

CONFERENCE TOPICS:

• Structural conditioning of erosive machining (EM),
• Virtual techniques in EM process control,
• Modeling and simulation of erosive machining (EM),
• Experimental studies of erosive machining,
• Optimization methods and procedures in erosive machining,
• Unconventional machining methods in machine construction (water jet, abrasive jet, explosive forming, ion beam machining, Rapid Prototyping, selective laser sintering etc.),
• Microtechnology and nanotechnology.
