Wire EDM differs from traditional machining because it does not rely on physical cutting tools. Instead, a thin electrically charged wire creates controlled sparks that erode metal. There is no direct ...

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a machining process that discharges electric sparks from two electrodes on a metal sheet to detach the desired shape. Also called spark machining, it employs ...

GF Machining Solutions’ MoldTech package is available on four high-speed wire EDM models: the CUT 200 mS, CUT 200 Sp, CUT 300 mS, and the CUT 300 Sp. Producing complex molds is a task that ...

If you’ve ever short-circuited a car battery, you’ve seen the pitting and damage a few sparks can cause. Smart minds realised that controlled sparks could erode metal very accurately, in a process now ...

EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) is one of those specialised manufacturing processes that are traditionally expensive and therefore somewhat underrepresented in the DIY and hacker scenes. It’s ...

Through a partnership with several machine tool manufacturers, DP Technology enhanced and customized its Windows-based Esprit CAM software package (for wire EDM programming) towards particular EDM ...

Gabe Lipscomb didn't plan a career in education. He once told his high school geometry teacher that the class was stupid and that he would never use any of what he learned there. "Then I went and ...

Adding automation to EDM can provide long periods of unattended machining or be used in a closed-loop cell, while EDM control features can automate electrode design and process parameters.

A H80R.MAC high-speed rotary spindle and H1680.AC4 variable-speed ac controller, combined with wire-EDM equipment, make possible the production of parts to 0.002-in. diameter and surface finishes to ...
