This paper deals with the development of mathematical models for electrical discharge machining process (EDM) and also an attempt has been made to optimize the machining parameters of EDM processes. Through hole drilling experiment has been conducted on mild steel and mathematical models are formulated for maximizing the metal removal rate and minimizing the surface roughness. SPSS and 'C' programming have been used to optimize the machining parameters for EDM.
