The Portable EDM Machine safely and easily removes broken studs, taps, screws and drills without damaging the threads. Additionally, the Portable EDM Machine can machine any shape hole, notch, crack, slot, groove or cavity in any metal, even hardened steel and carbide.
Can I drill out a broken tap?
Centre punch the tap and drill out the tap. Most taps are made from hardened steel and it is unlikely that you will be able to drill through the centre of the tap. Use a cobalt bit if attempting to do so. Use a carbide burr with a dremel tool and try to take out the centre.Mar 9, 2019

What are the types of EDM machines?
- Conventional EDM Machines. Conventional EDM also goes by several other names, such as sinker EDM, die sinking, cavity-type EDM, volume EDM and ram EDM. ...
- Wire EDM Machines. Wire EDM, also known as spark EDM, wire burning and wire erosion, uses a thin heated wire as an electrode.
What is an EDM circuit?
Electrical discharge machining (EDM), also known as spark machining, spark eroding, die sinking, wire burning or wire erosion, is a metal fabrication process whereby a desired shape is obtained by using electrical discharges (sparks). ... The process depends upon the tool and work piece not making physical contact.
