Reviewer 2 Report
The paper addresses an experimental and numerical study on DED and PEP processes. The subject is worth addressing, but the paper has many flaws that prevent publication. Please see the attached file with detailed comments. Many important technical details about the study are missing (especially the numerical part, which is presented without any background), and the discussion of the obtained results is poor. Structure of the paper is confusing. The reviewer advises the authors to address all these issues, and those pointed out by the other reviewers, and significantly improve the paper. At this point, it will be possible to have a different opinion about the work. Good luck for the improvements.

The English language is very poor, and it should be checked and improved by a native speaker.

Reviewer 3 Report
The article describes electrophysical processing technology on the selected material. The authors compare the mechanical properties and roughness after processing with different technologies. I think that article has scientific soundness that can be improved. My comments:
1. I think that only 20 literature sources is nos sufficient for scientific paper and literature should be expanded.
2. Some results should be discribed in the abstract.
3. Authors mention cutting speed of 120 m/min and spindle revolutions 1200 rpm at turning. Is this correct?
4. What kind of turning tool was used?
5. Authors describe results in figures as histograms. I think that these bar graphs are not histograms. They are only bar graphs.
I think that paper can be published after minor revisions.

Reviewer 2 Report
The paper is improved but it still lacks issues pointed out in the first review. The reviewer suggested to remove one sentence with technical details from the abstract, numerical fatigue analysis are still missing, many typos in the text still exist, and there is no detailed report to the reviewer with the changes made (including the changes in the first review). Please address these issues in high detail
English writing requires a significant improvement still.
