Copper is more efficiently cut on WEDM machines, which makes it cut much faster than graphite in WEDM. Highly detailed electrodes, […]
A major advance in the manufacture of dies and punches has been the use of wirecut EDM. This die is part of a three-unit pierce die assembly. […]
A simple wirecut EDM operation produced an intricate Ampco 45 bronze mount jaw, which requires tolerances to within +/-.0005″. The manufacturer saved an estimated $300 on special cutters, […]
Wirecut EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) is a thermal machining process. Sparks discharged from a small-diameter, tensioned wire erode the workpiece without any contact between the tool and the part produced. […]
EDM dielectric additives can subtract labor costs for mold makers by eliminating the need for secondary hand polishing. […]
Key features of QuickElectrode include: […]
Many EDM electrode design steps are being automated, making electrode production faster and easier. Developments promise to streamline situations where EDMing is unavoidable, […]
A hot runner system is an assembly of heated components used in plastic injection molds that inject molten plastic into the cavities of the mold. (The cavities are the part of the mold shaped like the parts to be produced) […]
General Rapid prototyping is the method for the creation of parts derived from 3D CAD data. The derived part is decomposed into slices (down to 0.003 inches thick), and SLA, STL builds the part a layer at a time. The contour and interior of a slice are created using a laser to solidify liquid polymer [...]
