Mold manufacturing EDM factory how to choose EDM oil?

In mechanical engineering, electrical machining plays a more and more important role, EDM machine tool with its unique processing performance, more and more widely used in our country, EDM machining oil is the medium oil of EDM machine tool, is an important part of the processing technology, it is directly related to the processing quality of the workpiece, related to the safety of personnel and equipment. Edm engine oil is an indispensable discharge medium liquid in EDM machining. Edm engine oil can insulate and deionize, cool the high temperature in EDM machining and remove carbon slag.

Edm molding has become one of the important means of mold and parts 3D internal and external surface, cavity machining. In the rapid development of mold manufacturing technology today, in-depth understanding of the relevant knowledge of EDM fluid, better selection and use, plays an important role in improving the processing efficiency of EDM molding.

What are the precautions for choosing electric spark oil

1, low viscosity, electric discharge oil requires low viscosity, that is, better fluidity, 40℃ kinematic viscosity of 2.5 and below is more appropriate. Low viscosity electric discharge oil can effectively remove carbon slag, and can accelerate the separation and precipitation of carbon slag particles, and has an excellent cleaning effect on spark plugs.

2, high flash point, electric discharge oil requires a high flash point, generally more than 105 degrees is more suitable, can reduce the risk of fire in the machine.

3, good insulation performance, electric discharge oil should have good insulation performance to maintain the appropriate insulation strength between the tool electrode and the workpiece.

4, not volatile, the electric discharge oil is not volatile, that is, the thermal stability and oxidation stability is strong, can extend its working life.

5, low aromatic hydrocarbon content, electric discharge oil to very low aromatic hydrocarbon content, does not stimulate the skin and nervous system, harmless to the human body;

6, colorless and odorless, the electric spark oil should be colorless and odorless, transparent and froth-free, and the oil color is clear, which helps the user to observe the working condition of the spark plug and improve the working environment.

If the flash point is as high as possible, the viscosity should be low. Because in the process of electrical processing, the contact surface distance of the discharge is 0.03mm-0.06mm, low viscosity, good oil permeability, good thermal conductivity, it is not easy to produce secondary discharge of metal or graphite particles on the surface of the workpiece between the electrode and the workpiece, which can improve the surface roughness and relatively prevent the electrode from carbon accumulation.

Electric discharge oil use points of attention

The first time you touch the spark oil, the skin will produce an itchy reaction, and people with allergic skin will have blisters and red skin. However, it is not easy to reappear after removing the skin. Wear long-sleeved work clothing and chemical-resistant rubber gloves when working on operating systems that touch the human body. If it causes allergic skin, it should terminate the actual operation, buy some allergic plaster to wipe under mild conditions, if more serious, you must see a doctor for treatment. If a large number of staff hurt hands, you must test the spark oil now used, which may be the spark oil contains more aromatics, easy to hurt hands, allergies. If the spark oil is in contact with the skin, it needs to be completely cleaned with tap water immediately, at the same time, the clothes attached to the spark oil can not continue to wear, to replace the contaminated clothes, pants and shoes, clean before wearing, otherwise it is easy to lead to physical damage.
