The EDG Range by ANCA offers advanced solutions for manufacturing and resharpening PCD, carbide (HM), and HSS tools. With integrated dual erosion and grinding spindles, these machines provide supreme flexibility for various tool types.
Electro Discharge Grinding (EDG) is a pivotal technology in modern tool manufacturing, enabling precise machining of hard materials like polycrystalline diamond (PCD). Its integration into the industry has revolutionized the production of high-performance cutting tools, meeting the increasing demand for durability and precision.
ANCA’s EDG machines feature the ANCA Motion SparX Erosion Generator, delivering superior cycle times and surface finishes. The Intelligent Adaptive Control (IAC) maintains optimal spark erosion gaps, ensuring efficiency in both simple and complex tool geometries. Additionally, the Adaptive Spark Control (ASC) optimizes the erosion process, enhancing tool quality and longevity.
Choosing ANCA’s EDG Range ensures high-quality tool production with reduced cycle times and improved surface finishes. The machines’ versatility accommodates various tool types, providing manufacturers with the flexibility to meet diverse customer needs. Enhanced tool longevity and precision lead to cost savings and increased productivity.
