Electrodes in Electric Discharge Machining (EDM)

In EDM, graphite blocks are machined into electrodes that play the role of forming hard metals.  The electrodes produce electric sparks that erode the surfaces of the metals, making it easy for you to shape hard metals.

For example, with high accuracy while not changing its molecular composition.

Due to its wear resistance, graphite is well-suited for use in EDM since the electrode’s ability to properly shape the metal is assured. This durability also translates to infrequent replacement needs, hence saving your time, and therefore making operational costs cheaper.
