EDM machining the smart Solution for machining Hardened Materials
EDM machining the smart Solution for machining of hardened Materials
Higher levels of Quality combined with outstanding service is key to
succeeding in the manufacturing engineering industries in Australia
The team at ALNO Product Services offers a complete EDM Machining service, EDM - Electronic Discharge Machining opens
doors to a range of machining solutions across industries. EDM machining allows metals to be cut with high accuracy, especially those
with extreme hardness and complicated geometry, or those components
where general machine tools make it impossible to machine using traditional methods.
EDM provides a single and
accurate solution for very small components that are usually difficult
to machine in general practices/machines. Die sinking reproduces, in a metallic workpiece, the shape of a tool
called electrode. Injection molds for plastic parts are very frequently
machined by die sinking.
The shape given to the electrode is that of the object that is going to be molded. In the machining area, each discharge creates a crater in the workpiece - material removal and an impact on the tool - wear of the tool/electrode.
There is never any mechanical contact between the electrode and workpiece. The team at Alno Product Services manufacture electrodes from copper or graphite.

Economical EDM Machining
The team at ALNO Product Services is one of the few specialist precision
engineering companies that combine the plant and machining expertise to provide EDM sinking capabilities.
For Economical EDM Machining there is no quantity to large or too small as our team can machine components in a batch sizes from 1 to 1000s.
The Accurate and Economic Machining of Exotic Materials
Exotic materials including A-286 Superalloys, Medical Grade
Stainless, Food Grade Stainless Steel, Aircraft Grade Aluminum, Titanium, Bisalloy, tungsten carbide, molybdenum, and copper can all be machined. In most cases materials can be machined without the risk of heat treatment with regard to hardened form and profile thus offering higher utilization of valuable
materials is provided through chipless machining.
EDM Machining offers Absolute Consistency Between Machined Parts particularly when measured against traditional or CNC machining.

EDM Machining Process
The team at ALNO Product Services offer a EDM Machining process for Complex Geometric Forms.
The EDM Machining Process has a number of benifits which include
The EDM Machining Process has a number of benifits which include
- Complex contoured shapes can be produced in one piece rather than several, in the exact configuration that is specified.
- The EDM process offers a Rapid, Economic Production of Prototypes and Low Run production Parts
- Offers additional capabilities to accurately machine complex designs, can eliminate or
reduce fixture and tooling costs for precision production
parts.
- Precise Machining of Pre-hardened Materials
- Hardened materials can be EDM eroded, the need for the heat
treatment of machined parts is eliminated, avoiding potential
distortion.
- Machining to Tight Tolerances, Avoiding Distortion and Stress
- Very low machining forces allow tight tolerances of up to 2 microns
to be achieved. With little or no stress imparted into the work only
light clamping is necessary. Thin materials can also be machined without
distortion.
- The Accurate and Economic Machining of Exotic Materials
- Exotic materials including A-286 Superalloys, medical grade
stainless, titanium, Hastelloy, tungsten carbide, molybdenum, aluminium
alloys and copper can all be machined. Better utilisation of valuable
materials is provided through chipless machining.
- Absolute Consistency Between Machined Parts.
- Because with wire EDM there is no contact between the cutting wire and the surface, there is no tooling wear and absolute consistency can be achieved on every machined part.
EDM Machining is just one service amounst many that the team at Alno Product Services offer other services include:
- Precision Engineering
- Wire EDM, Sink EDM
- Press Tools
- CNC Milling & Turning

Electric Discharge Machines (EDM)
EDM
can be used to machine conductive materials of any hardness with the
exception of steel or titanium to an accuracy of up to one-thousandth
of a millimeter with no mechanical action. By virtue of these
properties, EDM is one of the key technologies in mold and tool making.

EDM - Injection Mould - Sink Marks
Sink marks are a common potential pitfall of designing for the
process of injection molding in many cases without the correct design tools sink marks are unavoidable.
Melting plastic pellets and molding them into a part seems like a rather simple endeavor although, sometimes can be anything but. A sink mark is a local surface depression or void that typically occurs in moldings with thicker sections. They are also common in locations above ribs, bosses, or internal fillets. As the plastic cools at different rates in the mold, the surface hardens but leaves the thicker areas in the center still molten. As the thicker areas cool, they contract and leave depressions in the surface of the part; sometimes the part may even warp completely
Sink marks can be avoided by:

As the thicker areas cool, they contract and leave depressions in the surface of the part; sometimes the part may even warp completely
Sink marks can be avoided by:
- Core out the solid sections of your part to reduce thick areas.
- As a rule of thumb, make sure that all bosses and locating & support ribs are no more than 60% of the thickness of your nominal wall.
- Modeling your part in Soildworks through the design process.
If you have any questions with regard to the injection moulding process and creating injection mould through the EDM machining Process please feel free to contact ALNO product Services for more information.
