In Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM), a thin single-strand metal wire, usually brass, is fed through the workpiece. EDM is a thermal process, removing material from the two electrodes by melting or vaporization, along with pressure dynamics established in the spark-gap. Material is removed from the work piece by a series of rapidly recurring current discharges between the tool-electrode, or simply the “tool” or “electrode,” and the workpiece-electrode, or “work piece.” The process depends upon the tool and work piece not making actual contact.
