Wire EDM Machine Buyer’s Guide

By / April 15, 2023

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a process that applies CNC technology with electrical sparks to form simple or complex shapes. Sometimes referred to as spark machining, EDM creates profiles when current discharges and sparks occur between two electrodesā€”the wire and the workpiece. As the wire moves through the workpiece, it cuts the desired shape, and

29. Create a Peck Drilling Program in Circular or Rectangular Patterns
Using the Circular or Rectangular Drilling Wizards, you can program the machine to drill an un-limited series of holes along the X and Y planes. Program it to drill straight through to your total depth, use a high-speed pecking cycle, or deep hole pecking cycle. You can program the cut-in depth and return point for a controlled peck drill application to maximize chip clearance.
