Electrical discharge machining (or EDM) is one of the most accurate manufacturing processes available for creating complex or simple shapes and geometries within parts and assemblies. A machining method typically used for hard metals, EDM makes it possible to work with metals for which traditional machining techniques are ineffective.
A wire-cut EDM machine using the CNC drawing plotter and optical line follower techniques was produced in 1974. Dulebohn later used the same plotter CNC program to directly control the EDM machine, and the first CNC EDM machine was produced in 1976. [10] Commercial wire EDM capability and use has advanced substantially during recent decades. [11]
The estimated project cost during initial planning was US$200 million; 78% of which borne by the Asian Development Bank, [1] while the remaining 22% by the developers, including the Ceylon Electricity Board. [2] It is the largest wind farm in Sri Lanka. [3] [4] [5] Denmark-based wind turbine manufacturer Vestas supplied the turbines for the ...
The proposed connection involves the linking of the national grids of India and Sri Lanka via Rameshwaram in south India and Talaimannar in north-west Sri Lanka. The project involves the construction of a HVDC connection between Madurai in southern India and Anuradhapura in central Sri Lanka, through the Palk Strait. The link would measure ...
Services accounted for 58.2% of Sri Lanka's economy in 2019 up from 54.6% in 2010, industry 27.4% up from 26.4% a decade earlier and agriculture 7.4%. [40] Though there is a competitive export agricultural sector, technological advances have been slow to enter the protected domestic sector. [41]
Originally developed at Itek on the PDP-1 as EDM (Electronic Drafting Machine), the efforts were purchased by Control Data Corporation and ported to their machines, along with a new graphics terminal to support it. Systems cost almost $500,000 and supported only a few users at a time, so in spite of a number of advantages it was not cost ...
The lack of raw materials during World War II made the manufacture of new machines difficult and expensive. [6] The first all original amusement device made by Williams was a flipperless pinball machine called Suspense (1946). During the late 1940s and early 1950s, Williams continued to make pinball machines and the occasional bat-and-ball game.
