Wire Cutting

Wire cut EDM machines use a metallic wire (elec- trode) to cut a programmed contour in a work- piece. Extrusion dies and blanking punches are very often machined by wire cutting. In the ma- chining area, each discharge creates a crater in the workpiece (material removal) and an impact on the tool (wear of the tool/electrode). The wire can be inclined, thus making it possible to make parts with taper or with different profiles at the top and bottom. The wire is usually made of brass or stratified copper, and is between 0.02 and 0.33 mm diameter.

Wire cut EDM satisfies the demand for high speed machining with respect of surface integrity. It com- plies with the requirement of complex & large work pieces in die manufacturing,aerospace,medical and other part productions.

Wire Cut Machines are capable to achieve submi- cro position for producing parts of exreme accu- racy and nanolevel surface finish down to RA 0.04
