Unit 9 The Special-Purpose Machining Equipment 9.1 Lesson 17 Electro-discharge Machines Electrical discharge machining (EDM), or electro-discharge machining, or spark machining, as it is so-called, is based on the eroding effect of an electric spark on both the electrodes used to produce it. When applying the electro-discharge machining process, the material is eroded as a result of an electrical discharge between tool and work. As in the case of ECM, EDM is a copying process where there is no contact between tool and work. Contrary to ECM, there is some erosion of the tool in EDM
