Processing by electro erosion EDM (Electric Discharge Machining) is a process that uses a series of electric discharges (sparks) to erode material from the work piece. Processing by electro erosion exploded. EDM (Electric Discharge Machining) has established itself as a precision technology chosen more for what can be done than for what they can not do conventional machines. EDM (Electric Discharge Machining) is a processing technology that enabled a multitude of new applications, the importance of increasingly high is placed on the graphite electrode material used. Although there are several methods to determine the correct material for an application, we believe that there are five factors that can mean the difference between success and failure, between profit and loss. These factors are: metal removal rate, wear resistance, surface finish, the processability, the cost of the material.
