Utilizing electric discharge machining makes it feasible to machine through any material or substance as long as it is conductive.
FREMONT, CA: Utilizing electrical discharge machining inclusive of a conventional machining method like CNC is a good choice for parts with clear geometrical needs that are not executed through conventional machining methods. This machining method is perfectly suitable for tasks because of the machining process. The process can machine hard materials, for example, Inconel, making it a perfect choice when operating with materials.
More freedom to design
Electrical discharge machining presents many advantages, along with cutting forms and depths unattainable with traditional machining techniques. These enclose interior corners that are rightly square and with undercuts. Another benefit is that there are no burrs yielded during the machining procedure.
Free-from-distortion machining
Compared with conventional machining techniques, this process never concerns the tool making physical contact with the workpiece. There is no distortion when no forces are working on the portion. It makes the machine's very thin features possible without stressing about them breaking. Also, the lack of distortion permits very tight tolerances of +/- 0.012mm.
Superior surface polish
Conventional material removal techniques, such as CNC milling, produce machining markings on the workpiece for cleaning up during post-machining. EDM yields surface with zero-directionality, letting uniformly smooth surfaces without additional processing. Yet, rapid EDM processing can leave a faintly bead-blasted texture behind.
Material hardness is not a factor.
Electric discharge machining can machine through any material as long as it is conductive. In this way, it is possible to machine these materials along with Inconel, tungsten carbide, and other tough materials.
Precision
Because of its high levels of precision, EDM is one of the best for making small components and prototypes despite its limited efficiency in producing big-volume orders. For instance, this method is frequently used in the automotive sector, where producing sophisticated engine components demands high precision.
