Nothing Bland About Blanda Inc.
1996/6/1In this remarkable setting, Blanda Inc.'s hole popper--a small-hole EDM machine from Current EDM (Mountain View, California)--is rather inconspicuous. It is not a very large machine. Nevertheless, it is a very important piece of equipment that frequently plays a critical role in what this shop does best, that is, using wire EDM for some remarkably inventive, creative and strategic process

CNC Machining
Our CNC turning services are capable of receiving a solid chunk of raw material and – without any operator handling – can turn, mill, drill, bore, engrave, tap and thread a ready-to-ship, finished product. We have comprehensive CNC turning capabilities from .020″ to

CNC Milling: Advantages and Disadvantages Clearly
2021/3/26A CNC milling machine features a table that automatically moves (or rotates) the workpiece on different planes so the cutting tool can work on it. Unlike manual lathes, a CNC milling machine operates by converting a 3D CAD model into a set of computer instructions, which is then used to dictate the tooling's actions and movements automatically.

BUILD YOUR OWN CNC
Someone said, can you build me a machine that will cut big molds so I can make a prototype concept car from carbon fiber? My answer was, yes when - how about right now! He said OK This picture is one of the 2 horizontal rails that I have completed so far using - 1/8 steele C channel rails top and bottom with Vgroove bearings - 9 per side 18 total to roll that big X Keep checking back to see

Enigma Machine: how it works, how it was cracked, Marian
2020/2/5When the official British history of the First World War revealed that German messages were deciphered, in 1923 the German army realized that a more secure encryption system was required. The Germans eventually acquired about 30,000 Enigma machines with a slightly more complex design than commercially available. During the Second World War, Weacht, Luftwaffe and the German Navy

Rapid Prototype Manufacturing in China
2018/9/17Posted on: Sep 17, 2018, | By Candy, WayKen Marketing Manager Following the development of personal computers, numerical systems penetrated every industry. The same thing can be said for manufacturing. Nowadays, the advantages of CNC machining are popular among great varieties of manufacturers across many industries for their fabrication and manufacturing applications.

What Is a Keyseater Machine?
2017/9/27In some cases, a keyseater machine might be your only option (other than a vertical shaper) if a part is too large to cut with a broaching or wire EDM machine. For context, the Davis Keyseater can cut tool steel of 1/4″ wide x 5/8″ deep x 6″ length in just 10 minutes.

Machining From STL Files
1997/1/1The original intent of the STL format was to provide a means to unambiguously represent a solid model so that it could readily be turned into a physical prototype on a Stereolithography machine. The first STL specification was published by 3D Systems, Inc. (Valencia, California) -- developer of the Stereolithography process -- in July, 1988, and revised the following year.

Electrical discharge machining
Electrical discharge machining (EDM), also known as spark machining, spark eroding, die sinking, wire burning or wire erosion, is a metal fabrication process whereby a desired shape is obtained by using electrical discharges (sparks).[1] Material is removed from the work piece by a series of rapidly recurring current discharges between two

Electrical Discharge Machining
Wire EDM, or sometimes WEDM, originally developed in the 1960s and 1970s to serve as a new method for making dies out of hardened steel. In this approach to EDM, a thin wire serves as the electrode and moves in a carefully controlled pattern, which causes

CNC Machining: The Top 7 Types of CNC Machine
The workpiece is usually held horizontally in a machine vise, mounted on a table that moves in the X and Y directions. The spindle holds a variety of cutting tools and moves in the X, Y and Z axes. Although a mill can also drill holes and bores, it excels at removing stock

Invention Prototype
Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining): A block of steel can be cut in a precise shape via wire EDM. 2D CAD(Computer Aided Design) drawings are necessary. Solid Modeling: Solid modeling uses 3D CAD to create a virtual prototype that can be viewed on a computer screen from

Carve Metal With Electricity in Your 3D Printer
2015/6/18Since EDM is a thermal, not mechanical process, the hardness of the workpiece has almost no effect on the cutting rate. One can begin with pre-hardened steels and machine them directly. Another use is making stamping dies, a graphite or copper electrode is easily machined then burned into the workpiece with all its features transferred.
