Waterjet meets EDM.


Because of its familiarity with electrical discharge machining Electrical discharge machining (or EDM) is a machining method primarily used for hard metals or those that would be impossible to machine with traditional techniques. One critical limitation, however, is that EDM only works with materials that are electrically conductive.  (EDM (Engineering Data Management) An information system that maintains the details of all engineering data while the product is in the design and concept phase. This includes geometry and changes to geometry. See PLM.

That is, the Waterjet line of machines (three models, ranging from 3- to 5-axes) is designed so that roughing and bulk material removal can be performed prior to EDMing, which can reduce machining time by 28% compared with EDM alone.
