Calculation Formula for Molybdenum Wire Wear Standard
Processing Square Meters ÷ Wire Wear Number = How Many Square Meters Processed Per Wire
Processing Square Meters ÷ Wire Wear Number ÷ Molybdenum Wire Meters = How Many Square Meters Cut Per Meter/Wire
Generally speaking, when using high current for processing, for an 18-wire diameter molybdenum wire, it needs to be replaced after 4 wires. Continuing to use old molybdenum wire will significantly reduce efficiency.
Below, we’d like to ask you which of the following two molybdenum wire wear scenarios you would choose?
15W square millimeters with a loss of one wire, efficiency 10,000+
50W square millimeters with a loss of one wire, efficiency 2,000+
Clearly, for the same square millimeter, the efficiency is 5 times higher, and the time is reduced by 5 times. So, considering the savings in labor and time, is the loss of molybdenum wire still a concern?
Let’s look at these two sets of data:
5W square millimeters with a loss of one wire, efficiency 10,000+
15W square millimeters with a loss of one wire, efficiency 10,000+
When purchasing wire EDM machines, there are often significant price differences for machines with the same efficiency. Why is this? One reason lies in the data above.
