In this study, silicon carbide (SiC) reinforced MMC has been fabricated using the stir casting method. Die-sinking EDM of fabricated MMC was performed using a copper (Cu) electrode. Experiments were carried out using the response surface methodology of box-behnken design (BBD) (RSM). The response surface plot was used to do parametric analysis on the effect of peak current (Ip ), gap voltage (Vg ), pulse-on-time (Ton), and duty factor(τ) on material removal rate (MRR) and surface roughness (Ra) using a second order regression model. The interaction effect of current with a pulse on time and duty factor has a substantial effect on MRR, while the interaction of current and voltage has a major impact on Ra, according to ANOVA. The increase of current increases both MRR and Ra. In the case of pulse-on-time, the value of Ra begins to decrease after 150 µs when the machining is performed at low voltage (40 V). <br>
