Wire EDM <strong>Solutions</strong><br />
Market Segment: Aerospace<br />
Material: Aerospace Alloy<br />
Part Type: Jet Engine Fir Tree<br />
Cut On: AgieCharmilles Cut 200<br />
Dedicated<br />
Problem: As new hybrid alloys have<br />
been introduced into the Aerospace<br />
industry materials have become harder<br />
to broach and mill.<br />
Solution: After extensive research and<br />
working side by side with Aerospace<br />
engineers GF Machining <strong>Solutions</strong> was<br />
able to develop a Wire EDM solution<br />
to cut these new materials. The new<br />
solution has helped to increase accuracy<br />
over conventional processes. On<br />
top of reducing production costs automating<br />
and monitoring the process has<br />
helped to ensure consistent quality of<br />
the parts.
Die-Sink EDM <strong>Solutions</strong><br />
Market Segment: MedTec<br />
Material: Titanium<br />
Part Type: IV Setup<br />
Cut On: AgieCharmilles Form 200<br />
with Integrated Accura C-Axis<br />
Problem: Medical parts are getting<br />
smaller and need to be more accurate.<br />
Solution: Using the Form 200’s new IPG<br />
generator and IQ technology helped the<br />
customer to reduce his electrode cost and<br />
maintain accuracy and surface finish on<br />
this particular medical part.
Laser Texturing <strong>Solutions</strong><br />
Market Segment: Packaging<br />
Material: Steel<br />
Part Type: Bottle Caps<br />
Ablation Time: 2hrs 53mins<br />
Machined On: AgieCharmilles Laser 1000<br />
Problem: Producing and manufacturing<br />
mold for bottle caps takes a long time.<br />
Solution: With 5axis Laser Texturing<br />
<strong>Solutions</strong> from GF Machining <strong>Solutions</strong><br />
you are able to eliminate the machining<br />
of electrodes and the EDMing process all<br />
together.
Milling <strong>Solutions</strong><br />
Market Segment: Automotive<br />
Material: Titanium<br />
Part Type: F1-Racing Structural Part<br />
Cut On: MIKRON HEM 500U<br />
AgieCharmilles Cut 300 Sp<br />
Problem: As racing cars continue to<br />
push the envelope on speed and horsepower;<br />
race teams want to continue to<br />
find ways to make their cars lighter and<br />
faster.<br />
Solution: With a two stage process of<br />
Milling a part and then Wire EDMing the<br />
part race teams are able to re-use large<br />
parts of the expensive materials they are<br />
cutting while also reducing times to make<br />
their final components.
