Electrical Discharge Machining

 

Find Suppliers by Category

EDM electrodes consist of highly conductive and/or arc erosion-resistant materials such as graphite or copper. EDM is an acronym for electric discharge machining, a process that uses a controlled electrical spark to erode metal.

  • Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM)
    Electrical discharge machining (EDM) uses the discharge from an electrode to cut metal. There are two main types of EDM: wire and ram. With wire EDM, the electrode is a thin wire typically made of brass or other alloys. With ram EDM, the electrode is a specially shaped piece of graphite or copper

    . of the oil fi lm layer in the bearing, shaft current. discharges, causing electrical discharge machining. (EDM) pits and fusion craters in the race wall and ball. bearings. This phenomenon continues until the bearings. become so severely pitted that fl uting, excessive. noise, and failure occur
  • Minimizing Motor Shaft Bearing Current (.pdf)
    One cause of premature bearing failure is so-called "electrical discharge machining." This problem has been around for many years. Current takes the path with the least resistance which is sometimes through the motor bearings. The current concentrates near the contact points and can cause pitting
  • Advanced Manufacturing: Rapid Roughing of Tough Materials
    , and engine complexity. Blisks are usually roughed-out by CNCs, electrochemical milling (ECM), or electrical-discharge machining (EDM), and then hand polished. A more recent and faster roughing approach comes from so-called "blisk" machines that combine processes similar to ECM and EDM
  • Copper EDM Electrodes
    EDM electrodes and materials (wire or tube) are used in (EDM), a process that removes metal with an electrical discharge of very short duration and high current density between the electrode and the workpiece. Copper is often used to manufacture electrical discharge machining (EDM) electrodes
