Water jet guided laser as an alternative to EDM for micro-drilling of fuel injector nozzles: A comparison of machined surfaces

•The surface of drilled holes obtained by EDM and water jet guided laser drilling is analyzed by Shear Force Microscope.•The surface texture is characterized by (i) maximum peak-to-valley distance and (ii) periodicity.•Total excursion up to 1.7μm and 800nm is generated by micro-EDM and Laser Micro-J...
