Patent CA-2798557-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BONCHA SCOTT L
IPC: B23H1/00
Filed: 2012-12-07
Abstract: A method of manufacturing a two-piece or composite graphite blank applicable for EDM  or other similar needs. The composite electrode will combine a low cost backer substrate material manufactured to size for fixture holding without additional machining for attachment with a high cost material sufficient for the EDM process. The two pieces will be physically attached by an adhesive suitable for bonding graphite or copper impregnated graphite.
