EDM by E. C. JamesonElectrical Discharge Machining is the EDM fundamentals sourcebook, indispensable to students and apprentices. Non-engineers on the shop floor team will appreciate its lucid process descriptions that will help them communicate better about EDM. Even seasoned EDM veterans like Greg Whiteside, Applications Manager, at Charmilles Technologies, say they have learned something from it. This 328-page book covers the rudimentary knowledge knowledge behind the spark, how the spark is controlled, what causes overcut, and the importance of the dielectric fluid. With regard to the workpiece, it clearly explains the basic elements behind the affect the spark has on metallurgy and how the surface finish is produced and controlled. Electrical Discharge Machining addresses a host of other EDM topics, including the historical development of EDM, basics of the EDM machining system and process, the power supply (generator), spark voltage, electrode servo systems, and more.
Non-Traditional Machining Handbook by Carl SommerThis book covers such topics as: wire and ram EDM; fast hole EDM drilling; waterjet and abrasive waterjet machining; plasma and precision plasma cutting; photochemical and electrochemical machining; abrasive flow and ultrasonic machining; rapid prototyping and manufacturing; and lasers for cutting, welding, cladding, alloying, heat treating, marking, and drilling. It also includes chapters on outsourcing, purchasing equipment, building a successful business, and closes with a chapter on the future revolutionary non-traditional machine.

The EDM Handbook by E. P. GuitrauThis text explains the unique machining capabilities of EDM in depth, to provide the reader with a full and clear understanding of both the practical and theoretical aspects of the technology. Balanced coverage is given to both wire and vertical EDM, and the book contains many tips and ideas to improve performance that can't be found in any other source. Unusual topics include discharge dressing, innovative flushing techniques and advances in CNC-EDM strategies that will save both time and money. It also contains information on troubleshooting; purchasing and installing a machine; moldmaking techniques; preventive maintenance; and selecting and filtering water and dielectrics.
