Berkenhoff has expanded its megacut® product line for Japanese
machines to include two new wire electrodes: megacut® plus, the
coated high performance wire which combines high profitability, top quality and maximum reliability; and megacut® pro, the uncoated brass wire which offers a good price-performance ratio for all basic applications.
With these new wire electrodes, bedra offers a range of products which specifically respond to market needs in economically difficult times. Both products will help tool and mold making companies perform more efficiently and more cost-effectively.
The novel coated gamma phase wire megacut® plus was tailored to meet the specific requirements of Japanese EDM machines. bedra has developed a wire which combines high cutting rates, precision, process stability and excellent surface quality – and delivers maximum profitability.
megacut® plus is universally applicable on Japanese EDM machines and ensures immediate use in standard brass wire technology applications. Easy to thread, it is ideally suited for automated production in three-shift operation even during night time.
Due to its high process stability it is possible, depending on the application and number of cuts, to considerable reduce the wire run-off speed – without compromising surface quality or precision. Longer cutting with one spool! This saves wire costs and increases profitability.
It is noteworthy that these results are achieved under the most varied working conditions, that is, even under poor flushing conditions. Moreover, the excellent resistance of megacut® plus to wire breakage ensures a high degree of process stability.
In addition, the megacut® product line offers a new product alternative for all basic applications in the entry-level range: the megacut® pro.
This pure brass wire is also ideally suited for all Japanese EDM machines and, thanks to the proven bedra quality, provides high reliability in the cutting process. Its attractive price makes it a cost-effective alternative for all cutting applications where using pure brass wire is sufficient.
The new bedra electrodes, megacut® plus and megacut® pro, will significantly increase efficiency and profitability in tool and mould making on Japanese machines.
