NONTRADITIONAL MACHINING PROCESSES (SUCH AS ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE MACHINING) ARE INCREASINGLY PRODUCING COMPLEX PARTS OF SUPERALLOYS, CERAMICS, PLASTICS, FIBER REINFORCED COMPOSITES, WOOD, AND TEXTILES IN A VARIETY OF APPLICATIONS THROUGHOUT THE AEROSPACE, AUTOMOBILE, AND ELECTRONIC INDUSTRIES. MANY TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENTS AND RESEARCH ATTEMPTS HAVE BEEN MADE WORLD WIDE TO ENHANCE THE APPLICATION POTENTIAL AND KNOWLEDGE BASE OF ELECTRODISCHARGE (EDM) MACHINING PROCESSES. THIS PAPER PRESENTS A BRIEF REVIEW OF RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY OF EDM THAT ARE CRUCIAL TO THE FUTURE MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY.
