How to accurately Use Copper Alloys in Molds
The origin of mold design and moldmaking in China is traceable to metal stamping die makers, rubber moldmakers and die cast die makers. […]
Modern CAD/CAM system can help hard milling
the CAD/CAM system is another equally important component. Today’s CAD/CAM systems have greatly advanced over the years, […]
Use right Toolholders and tools for hard milling
Continuing within the circle, tool-holders play an important role in hard milling. Because hard milling requires a large range of rpms-from low rpms for a roughing application to high rpm for HSM-only the HSK interface between the toolholder and spindle interface should be used. […]
Experience about Milling on a Magnet
What was once considered a black magic has become a more calculable science. Still, many variables affect the clamping force of a magnet. Some of these variables include: material composition, surface finish, contact area, vibration and cutting forces. […]
Graphite is very important in making mold
The graphite industry is constantly striving to produce higher quality grades. Graphite materials have continued to evolve along with the other aspects of the EDM industry, […]
Introduction to two new types of milling magnets
two new types of milling magnets entered the market – magnetic setup blocks and permanent milling magnets. […]
What are the Components of Hard Milling?
Hard milling uses a combination of several key technologies that can be categorized into components. These components are defined as the machine tool, the CAD/CAM system, […]
The relationship of Graphite and High-Speed Machining
High-speed machining centers have made it possible to machine intricate detail into almost any grade of graphite, a task that would have been impossible using manual or CNC machining equipment. […]
Graphite and EDM Performance
EDMing thin ribs is a difficult application. High-speed machining of the elec-trodes has made it possible to fabricate these electrodes from grades that are not capable of maintaining the detail in the cavity. […]
Why we need Thermal Insulation Boards
The rubber, plastics and wood panel industries work with heated tooling when material is pressed directly between hot platens. […]
