Abstract
A prototype automatic (robot) system for the electric discharge machining (EDM) of a new generation of Russian polymer composites is described. The system permits more precise manufacturing, lowers production costs, and boosts the global competitiveness of Russian-made machines. Its effectiveness for the electric discharge machining of holes in polymer composite workpieces is demonstrated.
