EDM Spark Erosion
Spark erosion services offer the machining of hardened conductive materials by using a concentrated spark to cut away at the workpiece, otherwise known as electrical discharge machining. During the spark erosion process, an electrode of varying shape and a conductive workpiece are immersed in a dielectric fluid.
As the electrode nears the workpiece, a spark jumps between the two, creating a hot plasma on the surface of the workpiece that cuts it in a shape opposite to that of the electrode.
EDM Spark Erosion is used for a variety of complex operations, with multi-feature sparking available across one operation. This incorporates multi-axis erosion which cuts in three axes simultaneously.
Spark erosion machinery boasts technology that enables use on a range of multiple electrodes materials, including copper and graphite, so that pieces made of delicate metals such as Inconel and titanium can be worked.
our spark eroders have C-Axis capabilities, meaning electrodes can be spun in order to achieve higher precision at greater tolerances.
