Two years ago, Gerg Tool & Die (St. Marys, PA), which specializes in dies and tooling for the powdered metal industry, was looking for an EDM sinker machine for a specific part. The company had tried to use its existing equipment to manufacture this part, but was having difficulty achieving the accuracy...
In response to these dwindling lead times, Moldmakers evaluated its processes and realized an equipment upgrade would let them take on additional projects that had extremely short lead times. At the heart of the upgrade was a pair of Makino EDNC65 RAM EDM machines.
The objective of the demonstration is to show the V55's capability to handle contoured surfaces. The geometry of the wave provides an ideal example of the V55's ability to control feedrates.
Growing demands for machining of hardened materials, requiring exceptional submicron surface finishes will be reviewed in this webinar. See how progressive stamping dies, PCD tooling, motor cores and LED dies and molds can be machined faster, and with 0.2 Rz surface finishes utilizing new oil-based dielectric...
Makino will demonstrate how to achieve high precision plate and mold bases, using "off the shelf" tooling, eliminating the need for Jig Grinding. Several practical examples will be explored with supporting metrology which will showcase what can be achieved with current machine tool and cutter...
