In the present work, a model based on dimensional analysis (DA) coupled with the Taguchi method to analyze the impact of silicon carbide (SiC) has been presented. The wire cut electrical discharge machining (WEDM) performance of aluminium silicon carbide (AlSiC) metal matrix composite (MMC) has been critically examined. To formulate the DA based models, total 18 experiments were conducted using Taguchi’s L18 mixed plan of experimentation. The input data used in the DA models are a pulse on time, pulse off time, wire feed rate, % SiC, wire tension, flushing pressure etc. According to these process parameters, DA models for the surface roughness and the material removal rate was predicted. The formulated DA models have shown a strong correlation with the experimental data. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been used to find out the impact of individual parameters on response parameters.
