What is the electrode machining center? An electrode is an electrical conductor used to make contact with a nonmetallic part of a circuit (e.g. a semiconductor, an electrolyte, a vacuum or air). The word was coined by William Whewell at the request of the scientist Michael Faraday from two Greek words: Elektron, meaning amber (from which the word electricity is derived), and hodos, a way.
The electrode machining center refers to the machining center that specializes in processing electrons. These professional machine tools are generally more expensive. Is there a cheaper electrode machining center?
TAICNC has 2 machining centers that are also very suitable for machining electrodes, and the price is very affordable.
T6 CNC Tapping Center
T6 CNC Tapping Center This machining center is equipped with the 20000rpm straight-spindle spindle. The 3-axis 48M/min fast moving is very suitable for processing electrode products. There are various CNC controllers. The following is the parameter table of this electrode machining center.
