How does this new “Bundle” technology actually improve EDM performance?
The Micron Research “Bundle” technology impacts each of the Five Performance Factors of EDM Graphite in a different way, but there are common characteristics to each. For example, one of the key factors impacting Wear Resistance is the microstructure of the material. Simply put, wear is the breakdown of the bonds inherent in the structure of the graphite. When the bonds between the particles in a conventional graphite are broken down, that’s it, the particle is lost from the electrode and wear results. By introducing the new “bundle-to-bundle” bonding dynamic, Micron Research EDM Graphites have another line of defense, another bond which must also be broken down before wear can occur. The result is greater Wear Resistance in the EDM process.
