EDM Expertise Topics
Jeff Kiszonas
EDM Product Manager
Makino EDM Group
Jeff can deliver presentations on various EDM topics, including how to maintain a Wire EDM, how to choose an EDM wire product, and choosing the right grade of EDM graphite. Additional presentations through the Makino Applications staff include work holding, using EDM in conjunction with High Speed Milling as complementary processes, advancements and advantages to rotary table use with Wire or Ram EDM, or even application specific discussions, like how best to burn small, precise holes, or EDM titanium/carbide/high nickel alloys/etc.
Jeff has spearheaded an aerospace materials testing program at Makino. In this program we cut samples of various aerospace alloys with both Ram and Wire EDM, send the samples out to a NADCAP certified lab for testing of recast layer, Heat Affected Zone, micro-cracks, and Vickers micro-hardness. Once the data is received from the lab, I develop a presentation containing the latest test results, and make this data public via webinars and speaking appearances at events like MMTS (Montreal), IMTS (Chicago), and SAE Aerospace Conferences (Charleston). I have also presented this information to smaller groups during Makino local events.
He also presents webinars on Makino.com concerning various topics of interest for EDMers.
