This webinar will cover 3-axis machining with over 10:1 length to diameter ratio tooling, including roughing and finishing. We will discuss cutting strategies, standard tooling and tool holding systems and how to minimize vibration and tool run-out. Learn how to further minimize EDM time, improve your...

Nicknamed "The House of EDM," Norman Noble takes electrical discharge machining very seriously. The company slogan is 'Our name means excellence," and it shows in everything they produce.

"We’ve never seen a part come out so perfect," said Mark Moore, EDM manager at Norman Noble of Cleveland, Ohio, as he walked through a row of EDMs made by three different manufacturers. "We have 187 machine tools, 26 of them EDMs. But that first part out of the Makino floored me."

Implementing an integrated tooling system proved to be this mold shop's first step toward automated operation of its electrical discharge machines and graphite mills. Today, the shop's robotic cells can run around the clock in an unattended mode.
