2018 Technology Review and Sourcing Guide: EDM
MoldMaking Technology’s annual Technology Review and Sourcing Guide is an accurate, comprehensive, easy-to-read and easy-to-use use guide for researching today’s technology, equipment, products and services. The year’s latest moldmaking product developments within mold engineering/design, build and maintenance/repair are broken down into 10 sections, including EDM.
Makino introduces a new EDM machine in its Edge-Series, the Edge2, to the U.S. manufacturing market. The machine was built for general precision machining applications. It provides accurate and reliable performance for standard die and mold components or contract manufacturing with a space-saving design.
Poco Graphite has been a manufacturer of premium graphite for over 50 years, with a product line that includes more than 100 graphite grades used in EDM, semiconductor and other industrial applications.
GF Machining Solutions’s new compact Form E 350 machine is a suitable die sinking EDM solution for small shops. The Form E 350 has sturdy C-axis construction, a cross table and a cast-iron frame for stability and force reduction, which helps maintain a precise spark gap between the part and the electrode. GF Machining Solutions says that regardless of part weight or dielectric volume, the machine delivers consistent accuracy.
MoldMaking Technology’s online database offers more than 1,000 manufacturers, distributors and suppliers for more than 200 product and service categories that you employ daily. To keep this information current, MoldMaking Technology surveys and updates its supplier database every spring with the latest company contact information and product/service offerings.
This month’s Technology Review and Sourcing Guide includes a portion of that database listed in sourcing grids tailored to match suppliers with their respective product/service offerings along with a sample of product releases that the magazine featured throughout the year.
