I am having trouble opening this guide. Is it still working?

We use the Jergens ball lock system. It works well for us. A fixture change takes approx. 2 min. It also works well for vices so you don't have to indicate them every time you put them back on.

Thanks that did the trick

We have a Sodick Cnc Hole Poper (small hole edm) It works wonders removing taps or broken screws. It will burn .007 - .118" dia. hole so it is purfect for small taps. If it a larger tap we just progam an aray of holes to burn the center of the taps out. Then we use a pick to remove the flutes from the threads. We have approx. a 99% success rate. The problems that we run into is that if people try to remove the tap with a chisel or punch before hand it make removing the flutes from the threads alot harder.

Have you tried using a proper adjustable chucking ring to bore your jaws. Royal I believe makes them.

Could you use a boring cycle with the spindle off.

That seemed to work. I didn't have any copper tungsten so I just used Tellurium copper. It was very slow going. Is there any edm books that anyone can recomend on the edm process. Thanks,

I am new to sink edm. What I want to do is burn around a contour in a piece of C10 carbide. My question is what works better a copper electrode or graphite? I have an old Sodick A3CR Mark VIII. I do not have conditions for Graphite to Carbide only Copper to Carbide. If any one could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

They should be giving out free shirts for what we pay in maintenance fees. A mouse pad and a crapy calender just doesn't cut it.

Bernie the file you sent will work perfectly. I have a question about the Rast2Vec. How well does it work? Does the file need alot of work after you import it?

That loogs great. Could you email me the file or post it in the ftp. Thanks,

Is it possible to make it from a Jpeg or bitmap using the Raster2vector translator. Or will it be easier to try and draw it. Thanks,

We have a vtc-20b with a M-32B control. how would this benifit me?

We have this sytem set-up and running. I don't know why we wasted time doing it the old way. You can send/recieve/drip feed to multiple machines simultaniously. If your cables are already ran to your machines it only takes the technician a couple of hours and it is up and running. No more waiting for someone to finish sending a program so you can send one to your machine just request it from the machine and it will look in a specific folder on your pc for the program and it will automatically send it.
