Sinker EDM Technology Provides Faster Roughing of Deep Ribs
Makino’s SuperSpark IV sinker EDM reduces roughing times in deep-rib applications.
In addition, the spark-gap adaptive power control enables electrodes to discharge sparks during the jump cycle for continuous cutting throughout the EDM process. As the electrode depth increases, the power and spark gap decreases to prevent overburn. Together, these technologies are designed to improve total machining times.
