Effects of electrical discharge machining (EDM) jet flushing setting on the machining of tool steel workpiece

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is one of the most accurate manufacturing process for creating complex or simple shape and geometries within parts and assemblies. EDM works by eroding material in path of electrical discharges that form an arc between an electrode tool and the work piece. The ob...
