The Electrode Design CAD module gives designers and NC programmers in mold manufacturing a software tool for deriving the necessary burn areas for EDM electrodes and turning them into complete electrodes with access to blank and holder libraries without requiring any prior specialized knowledge of design or CAD techniques.
Analysis functions show the areas requiring further erosion after milling. Libraries for electrode blanks and holders are available for electrode design. EDM simulation tools let you check critical movements and detect possible collisions with the electrode base and holder. Functions for managing parts lists and documentation enable users to maintain clarity even when working with many or complex electrodes, and to make sure that electrodes are complete.
A Tebis CAD/CAM workstation offers enormous advantages for the overall process in electrode design. Every step is more efficient and reliable, from design and milling to EDM itself.
