Sinker EDM (Electrical Discharging Machining)

Die-sink electrical discharging machining is cutting into the workpiece by eroding the material around the “cutter” using electrical discharges (sparks). Material is removed from the workpiece by a series of rapidly recurring current discharges between the positive and negative sides of the machines platens while separated by a dielectric fluid (which is inherently non conductive) and subject to an electric voltage. Usually the upper platen is where the cutting tool or “electrode” is located an the table would hold the “workpiece”.

Wire-cut EDM

Wire EDM is process whereby a wire typically 0.015mm to 0.02mm in diameter is electrically charged at a very high voltage and used to cut precision shapes in prismatic components. The wire is passes from one spool to another and is guided by and an upper and lower guide as it cuts.

EDM is required for

Tight tolerances
Difficult to machine or hard materials
Difficult geometry and or 3D shapes
Burr free manufacturing
Low stress on materials

Features of the Wire EDM process

Low work holding forces
Low cutting forces
Very accurate process tolerance held +/-0.001mm.
Complex profile capability
No tool wear (the wire is continually replenished)
Environmentally friendly
Hardened materials are easily machined.

 

Realhao Precision owns 8 sets of sinker EDM machines and wire-cut EDM machines. It includes 1 off of EDM machines which can make mirror surface. And one low speed wire-cut EDM machines. It helps us make high quality metal components for customers.
