How to Produce Consistent, Repeatable Electrodes 
When it comes to electrode production, workholding and automation technology must be accurate and consistent to ensure repeatability and reduce machining time.
EDM Efficiencies Excel
Advancements in EDM processes in terms of machining speed and surface finish improve overall accuracy, productivity and profitability.
EDM Adds Spark to Metalcutting
Electrical discharge machining (EDM), also known as spark erosion machining, is a nontraditional method of removing metal by a series of rapidly recurring electrical discharges (that are the equivalent of tiny lightning bolts) between an electrode (the cutting tool) and the workpiece in the presence of dielectric fluid.
