Overview

EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) sinking, also known as die sinking, is a process where electrical sparks are used to erode material from a workpiece to create complex shapes and fine details. This technique is commonly used in mold-making, precision engineering, and the production of intricate parts that are difficult or impossible to machine using traditional methods.
