EDM OIL

ELECTRIC DISCHARGE MACHINING OIL

Product Description

EDM OIL is highly refined oil, recommended for submerged ram –type electrical discharge machining of dies and other complex recessed shapes. This is low viscosity oil with high flash point, slight odor and natural resistance to oxidation. Its low level of volatility provides dependable safety and minimal loss from evaporation during use. The low dielectric constant promotes an efficient energy-to-work ratio. The electric spark is concentrated between the electrode and work piece for maximum metal removal and minimum scattering and energy loss that may lead to overheating and premature oxidation. The product is safe to use and has a very high service life as compared to the conventional EDM OILS

Applications

In all electrical discharge machines working by penetration especially for roughing, finishing and super finishing work where a high removal rate is required for submerged ram-type electrical discharge machining of dies and other complex recessed shapes. The requirement for insulations and controlled dielectric discharge during electric discharge machining operations

Benefits

  •         Highly refined, bright and light-colored low viscosity product with low odor.
  •         Good heat transfer with high oxidation resistance to degradation for extended product life.
  •        High dielectric strength controls sparking & improve finish.
  •         Relating high flash point ensures no generation of fume and safety from fire hazards.
  •        Non-corrosive and requires least topping up quantity.
  •         Low skin sensitivity in normal use for non-toxicity of the product

  •        Product does not blacken during prolonged usage due to negligible aromatic content

Functions of EDM OIL

  •         Should act as a good insulator to control the spark.
  •         Contribute towards good surface finish.
  •         Improve the material removal rate.

  •         Flush the debris and keep the work area clean.
