Pulse width and pulse interval are two key parameters in wire cut EDM, directly impacting machining efficiency and outcomes.

Pulse Width refers to the discharge width on the molybdenum wire. A wider pulse width means longer discharge time and more energy per pulse, improving machining stability and efficiency but resulting in a rougher surface. Conversely, a narrower pulse width delivers less energy per pulse, producing a smoother surface but lowering cutting efficiency.

Pulse Interval is the time between discharges when no electricity is applied. During this interval, the molybdenum wire removes metal debris from the previous discharge to prevent short circuits in the next discharge.

A longer pulse interval slows cutting efficiency but enhances surface finish, while a shorter interval increases speed but may degrade surface quality.

These parameters affect machining current and must be adjusted according to material, workpiece height, and specific requirements. The Kingred K-cut EDM system;s process library offers preset parameters for various materials and heights, allowing users to directly use or fine-tune these settings, or create their own private process library for convenient access.
