An optional automatic wire-changing systems is an easy way for operators of GF AgieCharmilles’ CUT 2000 or CUT 3000 wire-cutting EDM machines to switch between different wire-diameter sizes and types, ...
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 ...
A lot has been accomplished in recent years to make wire EDM more efficient and reliable, but little has been done to make it faster. A big part of that limitation is just physics. A standard 0.010” ...
GF Machining Solutions’ (GFMS) AgieCharmilles X series of wire-cutting EDM are designed to eliminate pitch and positioning errors. The CUT 1000 X and CUT 1000 X OilTech deliver pitch accuracy of ±1.0 ...
They say that if you have a lathe, you have every other machine tool too. To some degree, that’s true — you can make almost anything on a lathe, including another lathe, and even parts best made on ...
Electrical discharge machining (EDM) services remove metal by burning instead of cutting or grinding. This is accomplished by submerging the workpiece in a dielectric fluid and sending rapid ...
Electrical discharge machines (EDM) remove metal from a workpiece by using a series of electric sparks to erode material. An EDM is considered to be the most precision oriented manufacturing process ...
