EDM Machining

Wire EDM vs Sinker EDM: The Differences Between the Two EDM Machining Process

When traditional machining methods touch their limits, manufacturers frequently turn to electrical discharge machining (EDM). EDM is a popular non-traditional machining process that uses electrical sparks to erode material and create precise shapes in hard materials. This process does not necessitate or utilize mechanical force to eliminate surplus material. EDM is widely used in the …
