This paper presents a new approach to implementing agile design and manufacturing concepts in the case of EDM (electrical discharge manufacturing). The approach is based on the integration of artificial intelligent (AI) and Internet technologies with the conventional design and manufacturing techniques. An intelligent decision-making system for EDM technology is proposed for remotely and quickly accessing design and manufacturing expertise at low cost and thus implementing design and manufacturing agility. The expertise includes the intelligent selection and reasoning of technological parameter in EDM. The expertise can be accessed globally through the Internet interface with the selection of the different machining conditions for a specific application. The paper concludes with a discussion it exists the potential benefits of the future applications of AI and Internet based agile manufacturing technology in industry.
