Abstract

A fixture holds a specimen during electrical discharge machining of the specimen and prevents tensile test samples cut from the specimen from bending or curving during the electrical discharge machining. The fixture has first engagement surfaces that clamp to one end of the specimen and has second engagement surfaces that clamp to the opposite end of the specimen during electrical discharge machining of the specimen. The fixture clamping to opposite ends of the specimen prevents the tensile test samples cut from the specimen from bending during electrical discharge machining of the specimen.
