Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM)

EDM works on the principles of thermal erosion and vaporization. By sparking electricity from the electrode to the machining surface, EDM devices can erode and vaporize metal, which is then removed from the area using a dielectric fluid.

Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) is a manufacturing process that uses a thin, electrically charged wire to cut intricate shapes and precise contours in conductive materials. It's a non-contact process, meaning the wire and workpiece don't physically touch, allowing for the creation of fine details and complex geometries with high accuracy.

Sinker EDM, also known as ram EDM, plunge EDM, or die-sinking EDM, is a non-contact machining process that uses electrical discharges to shape conductive materials. It's particularly useful for creating complex cavities and shapes, especially in hardened metals and where other methods are unsuitable. The process involves using a shaped electrode (often graphite or copper) that is submerged in a dielectric fluid along with the workpiece. Electrical sparks erode the material, creating a shape that mirrors the electrode.
