Turbine blisks designed for advanced liquid rocket engine turbopumps are usually of a timed structure with twisted blades, and they can be machined effectively with the electrical discharge machining (EDM) process. After the machining specifications have been designated, the EDM process of a turbopump turbine blisk is discussed, in which the kernel problems are the design of the electrode and the searching of an interference free path to feed the electrode to machine the blisk.
