What is Wire EDM?
The Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) process uses a thin single strand of wire, which is fed through the workpiece in conjunction with high pressure deionized water. Multiple miles of wire electrode held on wire spools is fed between two guide rollers, much like the blade on a band saw, that are then driven in a path controlled by the CNC machine control. During this EDM metal cutting process, electric current is used to erode away the conductive materials of the workpiece and leave behind an extremely smooth and uniform surface that requires no additional finishing or polishing processes. This wire electrical discharge machining process is typically used when low residual stresses in the workpiece material are desired, as there is little change to the mechanical properties of the material. During this process, the cutting wire electrode doesn’t ever touch the workpiece material. Instead, the EDM cutting takes place when electrical sparks form between the material and the cutting wire in what is referred to as the voltage gap. Highly filtered, deionized water is used because it deionizes the spark gap, flushes away the metal particles removed by erosion from the workpiece, and acts as a cooling medium to keep the machining temperatures stable. Wire EDM machining is widely used within a multitude of industries for creating components by cutting intricate shapes in numerous conductive and oftentimes delicate materials.
How Does Wire EDM Work?
As with all EDM machining, measured voltages between two electrodes are required to produce a current of electricity. These electrodes create a spark, generating temperatures of over 14,000°F to vaporize and erode the material being machined.
With wire EDM, voltage is sent through the wire and a current path is established between the workpiece and the wire, which serve as the two electrodes. A precise servo motor ensures a constant gap between the wire and the piece. If the wire were to touch the workpiece, a short circuit would occur, stopping the process.
In some ways, it is helpful to compare the wire EDM cutting action to that of a band saw, except the teeth of the band saw are replaced with the spark, which jumps from the wire to the workpiece nearly a million times per second to erode the material. Eroded materials shed from the workpiece are no larger than specks of dust.
Like a band saw, the thin wire is spooled and constantly fed between two computer-assisted guides. This constant spooling action provides a fresh cutting surface throughout the wire cutting process. Because the cutting action produces constant erosion of both electrodes, long lengths of wire must be used – around 11 miles long (19 km) – and spools can weigh about 18 pounds, depending on the wire’s gauge. Once the cutting dimensions are entered into the CNC machine, the process is ready to begin.
What Advantages Do Custom Wire EDM Machining Parts Offer?
EDM wire cutting machining services provide numerous benefits that can be custom utilized to your exact project specifications. Some of the added benefits of EDM machining services include:
- Cuts complex shapes.
- Can cut extremely hard material to very close tolerances.
- Manufactures very small workpieces where conventional cutting tools may damage the part.
- Delicate sections and weak materials can be machined without distortion since no direct contact is made.
- Provides a good surface finish.
- Very fine holes can be achieved.
- Capable of manufacturing tapered holes.
- Can produce pipe or container internal contours and internal corners down to R .008″.
Applications
Wire EDM-manufactured parts are regularly used for industrial applications throughout the world. Industries rely on EDM wire machining components manufacturers to produce the products they require to succeed. Some of the direct applications related to wire EDM services include:
1. Medical Device Manufacturing: As wire EDM machining makes it possible to cut or mold materials like steel without heating it, this method is an ideal choice of medical device manufacturers. With this method, the manufacturing of several life-saving instruments made from carbon steel becomes easier.
2. Tool, Die and Mold Making: With the help of EDM machining, it is possible to create very fine holes and profiles. Thus, electrical discharge machining is often used in the production of Molds, dies and Custom tools & Fixtures.
3. Military and Aerospace Applications: EDM is used widely in the military and aerospace industries to produce parts for important equipment. EDM are used to cut several aerospace parts.
4. Automotive Industry: In a competitive automotive industry, it is necessary to have short cycle times, and cutting costs. These are offered by EDM. Owing to its efficiency and accuracy, automotive manufacturers also turn to wire EDM.
