Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a processing technology where electrical discharges or sparks are used to remove material to produce features in a part. One of the key advantages of EDM is that it removes material without physical contact, which helps maintain the integrity of the part’s mechanical properties. Resonetics® performs both wire and sinker EDM processing to enable larger material removal for orthopedic applications while maintaining precision and process control.
