Spark generator

A spark generator is a component of an electrical discharge machining (EDM) system that generates high-voltage electrical pulses to create sparking and remove material from the workpiece.

Recast layer

The recast layer is a thin layer of molten and resolidified material that forms on the surface of the workpiece during electrical discharge machining (EDM), and is often characterized by a different microstructure and mechanical properties than the bulk material.

Taper

Taper is the angle of the sidewalls of a hole or channel created through electrical discharge machining (EDM), and is often controlled by the geometry of the tool electrode and the electrical parameters of the machining process.

Pulse frequency

Pulse frequency, also known as pulse rate, is the number of electrical discharges per second in electrical discharge machining (EDM), and is an important factor in controlling the material removal rate and surface finish of the machined part.

Pulse-off time

Pulse-off time refers to the time between electrical discharge cycles in electrical discharge machining (EDM), and is an important factor in controlling the heat buildup and wear on the electrode and workpiece.

Wire tension

Wire tension is the level of tension applied to the thin wire electrode in wire electrical discharge machining (EDM), and is an important factor in controlling the stability and accuracy of the machining process.

Reverse polarity

Reverse polarity is a technique used in electrical discharge machining (EDM) that involves reversing the direction of the electrical current to reduce electrode wear and improve machining efficiency.

Pulse-on time

Pulse-on time refers to the duration of the electrical discharge in electrical discharge machining (EDM), and is an important factor in determining the efficiency and effectiveness of the machining process.

Pulse duration

Pulse duration refers to the length of time that the electrical discharge is active in electrical discharge machining (EDM), and is an important factor in controlling the heat buildup and wear on the electrode and workpiece.

Spark machining

Spark machining, also known as electrical discharge machining (EDM), is a manufacturing process that uses electrical discharges to remove material from a workpiece and create precise shapes and features.
