WEDM is a thermo-electrical process which uses electrical spark to erode the work-piece material and is one of the greatest innovation technique which are affecting the tooling and machining industry. This paper includes study of recent research work done in the area of WEDM for various process parameter like( Pulse on time, Pulse off time, Wire feed rate, Peak current, Servo voltage etc) and their affect on performance measures like (Material Removal Rate, Surface Roughness, Surface Integrity, wire lag and inaccuracy etc). Last section of paper includes some suggestion for future research.
