Wire-cut EDM creates microscopically small particles during the cutting process; removing these “chips” becomes a key factor in maximizing cutting speed and attaining part accuracy and surface finish. To be an effective flushing agent, the dielectric fluid must flow freely into the zone where the cutting action occurs. Because each spark melts away a microscopic bit of the workpiece, the dielectric helps solidify the molten particle and keep it from adhering to the wire or the workpiece surface.
To get the best performance from a wire-cut EDM, the user must maintain the dielectric fluid’s cleanliness. If it gets too dirty, some materials will start to rust in the tank, and the surface finish may deteriorate. For example, cutting aluminum raises the conductivity of the dielectric fluid quickly.
Our products solve the following problems that wire-cut EDM users face-
- Our customers report changing the drum or paper cartridge filters only once a year.
- We design the systems to remove the microscopic particles from the de-ionized water/dielectric.
- We take the environmental impact of our filtration systems very seriously. Hence, we use regenerative filter media, i.e., the filter media is ‘cleaned’ or ‘backwashed’ at a set frequency and not discarded.
- These systems can be retrofit on any wire-cut EDM like Makino wire EDM, Sodick wire EDM, Agille Charmilles wire EDM, Chmer Wire EDM, Fanuc wire EDM, Mitsubishi wire EDM, Electronica wire EDM, Sodick wire EDM
