EDM is the technique used in industry
for high-precision machining of all types of conductive
materials (metals, alloys, graphite, ceramics, etc.),
of any hardness.
Definition
EDM is defined as the process of
stripping off material using a successive series of
electrical discharges at short intervals. These discharges
jump between two poles (electrode - or working tool
- and piece to be machined).
These discharges are created by electric pulse generators.
In this white paper, we discuss the basics
of Wire EDM and how the process allows users to
precisely machine parts with complex geometry,
as no other method can.
