When it comes time to decide whether to use graphite or copper electrodes in your shop, it’s important to look at the big picture. One has to consider application for which EDM is going to be used, depending on which a type of electrode can be chosen. Earlier, Copper was the only option available, however […]
As EDM industry is growing year-on-year, and steadily the outlook towards it has changed during this period. Market looks at EDM as proven and precise machine, which can do wonders as compared to conventional machining. While there are many methods used to come to conclusion as to what material is to be used, we at […]
Installing an EDM is different from acquiring a VMC, HMC or CNC lathe. The EDM Operation has some special requirements. Of course, these requirements are not complex or expensive but they are surely Important. Neglecting those can surely have a significant impact on the installation of the machine. After you have purchased an EDM, installation […]
In order to lower manufacturing cost, Japanese and Swiss EDM builders moved their plants to countries with lower labor cost. Seibu decided against this trend because it was against their philosophy. Seibu manufacturing philosophy is about quality and not quantity. Only 30 to 40 individually created high quality Seibu machines are hand crafted per […]
EDM Drills can be technically classified as a specialized EDM machining process, where a small hollow electrode, spinning around the spindle is used to drill small holes. The electrode is electrically charged using a servo-controlled generator and produces a spark. Water is commonly used as a dielectric. The dielectric flows through the electrode under pressure […]
A profitable machine. Automation is not the goal, making the machine as profitable as possible, is. Sparkonix launched the first made in India CNC EDM Drill in 2017. The trigger to develop the machine was our customers. Considering the economics, most of the customers who wanted to shift to CNC EDM Drills, found the […]
EDM Drilling once was looked at last resort for drilling of holes but is now one of the commonly used technology for its faster and precise drilling, consistently. In today’s blog we look at the core points which differentiate EDM drilling from conventional drilling Holes on curved and spherical surfaces In a conventional method of […]
With miniaturization and use of advanced electronic systems, the need for drilling holes that are smaller, deeper and more precise has been on the rise. The traditional drilling methods have some inherent limitation in achieving all this consistently. The advanced EDM Drills with modern controllers are able to successfully achieve such hole making operations. However, […]
RAM EDM, otherwise known as “Sinker EDM” or “Plunge EDM” has been around for over fifty years. As machining with Sinker EDM or Plunge EDM occurs by using electrical energy, the electrical conductivity plays a key role in how fast the Spark Gap can ionize allowing a spark to occur. Materials such as Carbides and […]
