    Fast hole drilling EDM uses a rotating tube to convey dielectric fluid to quickly drill small, deep holes in hard materials. It can drill a hole an inch deep in about a minute, making it useful for applications like cooling holes in aerospace components where traditional drilling is difficult. The process is similar to sinker EDM but uses a rotating tube instead of a stationary electrode. It is commonly used in industries like aerospace and gas turbines.

    Electrical Discharging Machining

    Electrical discharge machining (EDM), also known as spark machining. It is a metal


    fabrication process whereby a desired shape is obtained by using electrical discharges (sparks).

    Electrical discharge machining is a machining method primarily used for hard metals or those
    that would be very difficult to machine with traditional techniques. EDM typically works with
    materials that are electrically conductive, although methods have also been proposed for using
    EDM to machine insulating ceramics

    Fast Hole Drilling EDM


    Fast hole drilling EDM was designed for producing fast, accurate, small, and deep holes. It is conceptually
    akin to sinker EDM but the electrode is a rotating tube conveying a pressurized jet of dielectric fluid. It can
    make a hole an inch deep in about a minute and is a good way to machine holes in materials too hard for twist-
    drill machining. This EDM drilling type is used largely in the aerospace industry, producing cooling holes into
    aero blades and other components. It is also used to drill holes in industrial gas turbine blades, in molds and
    dies, and in bearings.
