Since wire EDM is a process that requires the workpiece to be completely immersed in a dielectric solution, the machine, dubbed “Betta,” is designed to fit inside a 10-gallon aquarium — get it?

Wire EDM-short for wire electrical discharge machining-is a non-contact machining process that uses a thin, electrically charged wire to cut through metal. The wire never touches the workpiece.
