ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINING PROCESS, ARTICLE FOR ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINING, AND ELECTRIC DISCHARGE COOLANT

摘要

An electric discharge machining process, an article for electric discharge machining, and an electrically-conductive electric discharge machining coolant are disclosed. The electric discharge machining process includes electric discharge machining a target region of a component. The article includes a non-electrically-conductive layer, an electrically-conductive layer, and a target region on the non-electrically-conductive layer. The electrically-conductive electric discharge machining coolant includes a hydrocarbon liquid and carbon powder suspended within the hydrocarbon liquid.
