Abstract
An offset electrode dresser includes a cylindrical collar having an aperture offset from its axis for retaining an electrode to expose only that area of an electrode tip which is to be dressed. A dressing tool is contained within a chuck which is positioned over the cylindrical collar to align the electrode tip with the dressing tool engaging the electrode in a position offset from the axis of the electrode. The chuck can be rotated by a pneumatic tool at a rate of speed for dressing the offset electrode tip.
