How does electrical discharge machining (EDM) work?

• EDM works by using electrical sparks to remove material from a workpiece.

• EDM works by using a mechanical cutting tool to remove material from a workpiece.

• EDM works by using a chemical solution to dissolve material from a workpiece.

• EDM works by using a laser to remove material from a workpiece.

What are the advantages of abrasive machining methods?

• Low material removal rate, inability to machine hard materials, and worsened surface finish.

• Low material removal rate, inability to machine soft materials, and worsened surface finish.

• Low material removal rate, inability to machine hard materials, and improved surface finish.

• High material removal rate, ability to machine hard materials, and improved surface finish.

What are the different forging techniques?

• open die forging, closed die forging, and ring rolling

• brazing, soldering, and welding

• sand casting, investment casting, and die casting

• extrusion, press forging, and upset forging
