Abstract

In modern manufacturing industries, Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) wire cut waste is a widely utilized method. The objective of this study is to investigate how the presence of long fiber WEDM wire cut waste affects the mechanical properties of laminated glass composites. Through a comprehensive experimental examination, we aim to understand the impact of incorporating WEDM wire cut waste in its long fiber form into laminated composites. Common tests such as tensile, flexural and impact tests will be conducted to assess their mechanical characteristics. The outcomes of this research endeavor will enhance our understanding of the potential benefits and limitations associated with using WEDM brass wire waste in this long fiber form. In the initial phase, the results reveal that incorporating 10% brass wire waste into fiberglass yields optimal performance. Moving on to the second phase, the investigation identifies that utilizing 6 layers of fiberglass with a 10% reinforcement of brass wire waste leads to notable improvements in strength force, ultimate strength,impact absorption and bending moment.
