  Electrical Discharge Machining - Wire EDMThe Top Choice for Complex Part Processing  What is Wire EDM? Wire EDM is a thermal process widely applied in the precision manufacturing of parts across various industries. This section delves into the functions of Wire EDM and its role in the manufacturing sector, especially when paired with rotary positioning tables.  Wire EDM Process Also known as EDM or WEDM, Wire EDM is a precise machining method that uses thermal energy to remove material from a workpiece. Known by various names such as spark erosion and wire erosion, the process involves a fine metal wire and deionized water to cut metal and prevent rusting. The wire, usually made of brass or layered copper, acts as the tool electrode and follows a pre-defined path to shape the workpiece.  History of Wire EDM The phenomenon of electrical discharge erosion was first observed in 1770 by British physicist Joseph Priestley, who termed it electrical discharge erosion. In 1967, the Soviet Union developed the first commercially available digital-controlled Wire EDM machine.   Types of Wire EDM  Wire EDM is categorized into fast wire, medium wire, and slow wire EDM. Fast wire EDM operates at speeds of 6 to 12 m/s, with high-speed reciprocating movement of the electrode wire but lower cutting precision. Medium wire EDM, an evolution of fast wire EDM, introduces frequency control for multiple cuts, a newer process developed in recent years. Slow wire EDM features a wire speed of 0.2 m/s with low-speed unidirectional movement, offering high cutting precision. Types and Sizes of Wires Used in Wire EDMWire EDM uses metal wires with diameters ranging from 0.0008 to 0.013 inches. Thinner wires require lower power settings and cut at slower speeds. Commonly, brass wires with a diameter of 0.010 inches are used. Shape of WorkpiecesWire EDM can cut small and complex shapes. For handling multiple flat parts, stacking workpieces can enable efficient, unattended batch processing. Materials for Wire EDMThis technology is extensively used in various industries. Pre-hardened mold steel is ideal for CNC Wire EDM, maintaining shape integrity without post-machining heat treatment. Titanium, known for its excellent conductivity, is well-suited for Wire EDM, generating minimal heat during the process and maintaining dimensional accuracy. Austenitic stainless steel, with its corrosion resistance and high thermal conductivity, ensures tool sharpness and prevents thermal damage. Tungsten and molybdenum, with high melting points, can withstand the high temperatures of EDM. Applications of Wire EDM  Wire EDM technology, combined with rotary positioning tables, finds broad applications across industries. Component ProcessingIn conponent processing industries, Wire EDM can manufacture parts with precise tolerances and complex shapes. High-precision rotary positioning tables enhance the ability to machine spiral and gear-like parts, acting as work exchange tables for accurate multiple part processing. Medical DevicesWire EDM offers the precision needed for producing complex medical instruments, ensuring the efficacy and compatibility of medical devices by meeting stringent regulations.ElectronicsWire EDM effectively produces microelectrodes used in microelectronics for circuits and sensors, where precise tolerances are critical for functionality.Mold ToolingWire EDM can rapidly shape mold inserts, ensuring accurate reproduction of intended plastic parts. It’s also used to make stamping dies, extrusion molds, cutting punches, and more.  Conclusion  Wire EDM is a precise and efficient machining process that, when paired with rotary positioning tables, expands the range and scope of processing capabilities, making it ideal for various industries' complex shapes. Compared to many other manufacturing processes, it offers greater accuracy, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness, enhancing manufacturing competitiveness.

Rotation Positioning Accuracy


2d645991f527a1f47763e48dc891e00a.jpg

Rotation positioning accuracy is one of the key indicators in modern manufacturing industry, which is crucial for product quality and process stability. With the continuous development of manufacturing technology and standards, the requirements for rotation positioning accuracy are becoming increasingly stringent. This article explores the definition of rotation positioning accuracy according to ISO 230, analyzes the application of rotation positioning technology in different industries, and discusses its future development trends.

What are the units of rotation positioning accuracy?

Positioning accuracy can be expressed in terms of distance or angle, and the units of specification vary depending on different applications and industry standards. Here are the common units and specifications for positioning accuracy:

Distance Units


Positioning accuracy in terms of distance is typically expressed in millimeters (mm) or micrometers (μm). According to ISO 230 standards, distance specifications may include absolute accuracy, relative accuracy, repeatability accuracy, etc., and have specific measurement methods and tolerance ranges.

Angle Units

 

 

Positioning accuracy in terms of angle is usually expressed in degrees (°), minutes ('), and seconds (〞). According to ISO 230 standards, angle specifications may include angular error, tilt, deviation angle, etc., and also have specific measurement methods and tolerance ranges.

When measuring and specifying positioning accuracy, various factors need to be considered, such as the accuracy of measurement equipment, measurement environment, material characteristics of workpieces, etc. Therefore, the unit specifications for positioning accuracy need to be determined according to specific applications and standards to ensure the accuracy of measurement results.

Rotation positioning accuracy is crucial for the manufacturing process and product quality. In the manufacturing process, precise rotation positioning ensures that machining centers can accurately position and process workpieces, thereby ensuring that the dimensions and shapes of products meet design requirements. Accurate rotation positioning can reduce errors and rework in the machining process, improve production efficiency, and yield rate.

In terms of product quality, rotation positioning accuracy directly affects the precision and surface quality of products. If the rotation positioning is inaccurate, it will result in workpiece positioning deviation, leading to problems such as inaccurate dimensions, rough surfaces, and irregular shapes, thereby affecting the functional and appearance quality of products.

Moreover, rotation positioning accuracy plays a key role in the manufacturing process. It ensures the alignment accuracy between different processing steps, achieving consistency and coherence in multi-step processing. At the same time, precise rotation positioning can reduce material waste and production costs in the manufacturing process, improve production efficiency, and control the quality level.

In summary, rotation positioning accuracy has a significant impact on the manufacturing process and product quality, not only related to the precision and surface quality of products but also directly affecting production efficiency and cost control. Therefore, it is essential to emphasize the improvement and control of rotation positioning accuracy in the manufacturing industry.
