With the help of higher electrode jump rates, higher electrode jumps can be obtained in linear motor equipped EDM. In this study, the effect of electrode jump height on machining speed and depth is experimentally investigated. From the experiments, a new definition named "Machining speed break point" is introduced and then it is theoretically calculated from a proposed electrode jump and debris exclusion model. Additionally, an algorithm is developed to calculate the accumulation of debris in machining gap. The results of the algorithm showed that the debris concentration begins to increase drastically near the machining speed break point.
