The project will present the effect of using wire cutting process inmaterial that is used in aircraft manufacturing as main fitting parts in theaircraft . The project aims to minimize the material waste and time consumedin producing aircraft parts. A specimen was cut using EDM wire cutting andtested for hardness, toughness and tensile strength, these results were thencompared to the conceptual design data.At the end of this research, the wire cutting process is expected toreduce the cost of manufacturing of aircraft parts. It was found that there wasa minor difference in the testing results between the wire cut material andCNC machined specimen. It is therefore the designer’s responsibility todecide whether it is suitable for use or not.
