EDM Live Training November 2026
Our basic curriculum is for students who wish to learn new EDM skills or for those who want to review their EDM knowledge. One of the keys to selecting the best grade of graphite for any application is to know the materials classification and understand how to use the information on the specification sheets. The properties and characteristics of each grade of material are indicators of the type of performance that can be expected during the EDM process. Our advanced curriculum is for students who wish to review more challenging aspects of the EDM process. The topics covered in the advanced course dive deeper into these more complex areas of EDM, and address student’s questions regarding applying these topics in their unique applications.
