Electrodesiccation – what does it consist of and when is it used?
EDM is a method of electrical discharge machining, which is based on the phenomenon of electrical erosion. The process of EDM is used primarily in the machining of industrial parts. In practice, EDM makes it possible to give difficult-to-machine parts complex shapes. In the case of hard-to-machine materials, classical metalworking is insufficient. The most common methods of machining using electrical erosion are wire electrode hollowing (WEDM) and electrode plunge machining (EDM).
What are the characteristics of EDM?
The process of metalworking using EDM is used to achieve accurate and complex shapes. Classical metalworking will not work in this case, due to the need to process parts with difficult accessibility.
The use of EDM in the manufacture of complex workpieces allows for precision workmanship. The EDM process will also work well for materials that are heavy to process. This is influenced by the use of electrical erosion, which allows for very high operating temperatures.
What does the EDM process look like in practice?
The process of EDM in practice requires the use of complex technology and specialized equipment. Cavity machining using this method involves inducing a reaction between the tool and the workpiece material. The applicability of electrodeposition is based on the achievement of a high temperature and in reaction the generation of an electric field. As a result, the particles of the workpiece material are rapidly vaporized in a specific space and geometry by the shape of the electrode.
What is EDM used for?
Because of its ability to precisely machine hard-to-reach parts, EDM is used in many industry-related fields. The advantages of EDM do not only include its accessibility and ability to machine complex parts. The EDM process can also be used to remanufacture tools and create injection molds, dies or gears.
Wire electrodeposition – process characteristics
The wire EDM process, which is among the EDM methods, is the process most often used for machining industrial parts. It’s what makes it possible to give hard-to-reach parts intricate shapes – even for hard-to-machine materials. Next to sinker EDM, it is the second most common machining method using electrical erosion. The process is characterized by high precision.
