by Entegris Poco Graphite Increasing the effectiveness of EDM operations does not come solely with technological improvements in the EDM sinker. This is one of many aspects needing to be considered when working to optimize EDM performance and increase productivity. Other areas of consideration include the type of dielectric fluid, tooling and electrode material used […]
Different Types of Milling There are many different types of tooling, the most common being work holding tools. Work holding tools include jigs and fixtures; cutting tools for milling and grinding machines; dies for cold forming, forging and extrusion machines; and welding and inspection fixtures. In this month’s blog, we are going to look at the […]

Quality Control in manufacturing is a needed process that ensures customers receive products that are free from defects and meet their needs.
Turning is a machining process in which a cutting tool, typically a non-rotary tool bit, describes a helix toolpath by moving more or less linearly while the workpiece rotates. Turning is a form of machining, a material removal process, which is used to create rotational parts by cutting away unwanted material. The turning process requires a turning machine or lathe, workpiece, fixture, and cutting tool.
] EDM Cavity As the cut progresses through the work metal a cavity starts to form. The deeper this cavity becomes, the harder it is for fresh dielectric fluid to get into the cavity to remove debris and quench the work piece and electrode. In order to get smooth, even flow of dielectric through the […]
EDM machining is considered by most to be a thermal removal process. The most convincing support for this claim is the removal of material from the electrodes by melting and/or vaporization by a thermal process, along with pressure dynamics established in the spark-gap. The spark gap generates an electrical force on the surface of the […]
We help evaluate geometry, tolerances, material behavior, and production goals before electrodes are manufactured.
Our team works with graphite and specialty materials every day, matching performance requirements to the right material choice.
CNC, form grinding, tooling, and inspection teams coordinate to keep complex EDM projects moving efficiently.
