Electrical discharge machine (EDM) of unusual versitility made by conversion of radial drill. Drilling head is replaced by ram that holds and positions electrode. Tank and recirculation system for coolant are added. EDM has six independent motions and drastically reduced cost of manufacturing. New applications are constantly being found.
