I had access to a professional EDM machine in my last job - the potential uses are endless: chisels for the lathe made from hardened HSS blanks takes minutes, high precision parts from titanium w/o the work hardening, thin-walled jewelry from super-alloys, a complex clamping mechanism that withstands high temperatures? That EDM machine saved us so much time and money!

Random comment but you should be careful with using superalloys for jewelry; dermatological nickel allergies are a thing and they are not fun. From personal experience even just having Inconel chips on my skin for a couple minutes can cause my skin to get hives.

@@barrag3463You are absolutely correct. Nickel is no joke and we were anal with the alloys we picked for our regular products (professional coffee makers). Some of the stuff we made were display things that only had to survive a photo shooting and were then put in storage. The other thing we found out is that some alloys are pretty "hot" in terms of radiation. Some of our suppliers were pretty careless when smelting scrap metal so we had to check all their shipments with radiation meters...

With professional wire machines, the use cases tend to be: Since there is no tool to part contact, they are incredibly accurate. If something needs to be spot on, wire it. 2. It cuts anything conductive, without care for how hard it is. It will cut hardened steel. 3. It can cut an almost square inside corner (limited by the wire diameter which is very small). These 3 combine to make wire machines the primary method for making stamping tools

@@judlex7300 That would be sick at one point but there are other options. On corner wire edm stops for short period of time to machine corner. Or you can use smaller diameter of wire to make even smaller radius. For that kind od WEDM we use 0.1mm wire instead of standard 0.25 or 0.3mm 😎
@kenmagalnik6596 26 күн бұрын
@@judlex7300 almost, but no. You need a bit of space between the wire and the metal you are cutting, for where the spark jumps and where the water washes out the burned metal. It's about half the wire diameter. So with a square wire you'd get a radius of about half the wire diameter rather than the whole diameter. Also, I suspect it won't be an arc, but rather some kind of parabolic who knows what shape. A lot of machines are made to run multiple wire diameters. 0.010 for most cuts, plus .002 for the super fine stuff. But really, .01 inside radius is pretty damn small, and you can usually just deal with that.

List of things to further DIY for EDM: A controller to handle all of the below. Flushing! Pumps, nozzles, variable water pressure, high and low flushing conditions. Deionizing filter, industry standard is glass beads in a bottle that can be recharged. Water resistivity sense, so that the DI filter doesn't make the water too clean. Water level sense, so the work tank can cycle water by itself. Paper filters, to clean out the larger chips. Wire sensor touch, auto wire threading, and water chilling are probably out of reach. Not a bad deal if you can't buy something like the Sodick VN400Q.

Water chilling doesn’t sound too unapproachable. You can get refrigerated units for laser cutters and Tig welders for relatively cheap. If for some reason the metallic sides and parts too many ions into the water, then I could imagine an open source solution with a plastic coil submerged in a refrigerated heat exchange fluid being a good community project.

@26:50 I have a bunch of hobbies, including the fiber arts, and this happens all the time with yarn, too. You always have to look at the dye lots on the yarn labels, to see which were dyed together, and therefore have the same color. If you get yarn that looks identical, but has different dye lots, and then knit with one for half a sweater, and with another for the other half, you'll most likely see it. It'll look like half the sweater was left out in the sun for years and faded a bit. You can get around it pretty well by alternating skeins every row. That's a bit harder with 3D printers.

The best tool/machine isn't the one that's the best, it's the one you can have/afford/manage. I develop software for industrial extruders: to give you an idea, during processing they use tens of kg of plastic per minute, the feed screw alone weighs 20 tons and they have tanks of 1 or 2 tons of pellets. They are certainly better and faster than our 3D printers: but if you don't have several millions, a warehouse, 4 or 5 operators etc. you can't have or use it. Same thing for CNC: I modified an Ender 5 Pro and a Plus to also use a spindle. In aluminum I can only do 0.16/0.2 DOC: slow but better than nothing. Next thing: EDM for sure.

excellent video - will have to drive up to Loveland next year (I'm about 40 miles south).

It's always awesome to have some electronic dance music while you're 3D printing. :D

Wow, some actual good news for us mere mortals for once and not corporate-to-corporate shilling with exorbitant pricetags.

First time I've bought anything from an ad. Saw you guys had TS101 compatible heat set tools kits and snapped it up straight away.

With an EDM machine I could at last make use of the titanium and tungsten I have in my scrap box. It would even cut tungsten carbide heating elements.

That Opensource EDM-Machine is awesome. I thought about getting the one Applied Science used, but the EDM-driver alone costs 5k. So those guys are the way to go for hobbyist.

Also, I'm really excited to see any advancement in home plastic recycling, and shredding seems to be 'the weakest link' right now. I kind of stopped 3D printing items 'recreationally/experimentally' when my boxes for storing sorted waste material filled up. It feels too bad to just throw plastic out like that when it's only been used once and I know the exact material, so I've been kind of... holding out for a way to affordably recycle it, and only printing things with immediate practical uses in the meantime. If you have a 3D printer with constant, closed-loop filament diameter sensing (shouldn't be too hard? Technically you want the cross-sectional area [or in-nozzle pressure?], not just the diameter, since it could be out-of-round, is this really that bad?), you could use fairly inaccurate home-extruded filament effectively, as long as the equipment to shred and extrude it is accessible.

The EDM is so cool! I used a Charmilles wire EDM for production of intricate othepaedic implants from Titanium sheet. Make a stack an inch high. Drill a start hole and next day stacks of completed cut parts. A mini shop version would be awesome! Nice work guys! Hes right about production EDM machine being expensive the Charmilles machine was about $400k in 1980s. 😮

If reliable, I could see purchasing a larger unit for my engineering department. I would love one for EDM cutting large gears. 40k USD would be a good target price for a large corporation to not blink twice on it.

an EDM machine would be perfect for making clock "wheels"(gears) for my old mechanical clock restorations. I can't wait to get my hands on one and start cutting precise parts!

the shredder is by far the most interesting, ontop of a cheap shredder we need a cheap filament creator (cheaper than the one you tested already) and cheap filament dryer
