We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "EDM Machine",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release CADCAM adoption ends outsourcing delays from
Delcam, which we summarised at the time by saying "A series of investments in CADCAM software has produced major time savings at Shinyoung Precision, one of Korea's leading manufacturers of moulded components for mobile phones".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Motion controller provides volumetric compensation from
Micromech: "An existing EDM machine for the manufacture of moulds for the plastic injection moulding industry had a problem - and the answer came in the form of the Delta Tau PMAC motion controller".
In August 2005, we covered the news from Eclipse Magnetics
concerning its Micromag
- take a look at Magnetic filter cuts cartridge clogging
which says: "Impact Tool Room Services recently installed a 5in Micromag filter onto an existing EDM machine to prefilter returning fluid prior to the existing cartridge filters".
Take a look also at the news release from Camtek, Software provides more robust automation,
as well as Link completes electrode design automation from Delcam,
and MACH 2004 still delivering orders from Manufacturing Technologies Association.
