Abstract :
The requirements of modern electrodischarge-machining power supplies are briefly reviewed, and the shortcomings of conventional equipment are detailed. A new and flexible design is described, which has an improvement in electrical efficiency of approximately seven times and a dependent drive to increase the controlled power input to the working gap.
