This episode of Learn To Burn, Zero Tolerance tackles a common challenge in machining: when EDM goes bad…
In this episode, Steve faces the task of burning 2 small carbide discs. Unaware of the necessary TI & TO settings on their sinker EDM, they witness the burn going south, resulting in a wrecked part and electrode buildup. With the guidance of Jim Weirdo, they seek control/settings recommendations to rectify the situation. Explaining the changes needed for carbide and overburn settings, they started on the second block with renewed settings and adjustments. And with the new settings implemented, the carbide was burned correctly.
