Wire Breakage

Wire breakage is usually attributed to the wire itself when realistically, it is often not the wire at all but
another problem. Potential causes of wire breaks other than the wire itself are as follows:

Worn out guides or power feeds.
Depleted resin affecting conductivity.
Incorrect on-time or off-time.
Incorrect wire tension or speed.
Incorrect flushing.

When changing to different diameter wire, either index or change your power feed contacts. Failure to do so can cause wire flaking. If "flaking" occurs with any EDM wire, it could be caused by one of the following:

Inaccurate wire guides.
Inconsistent wire diameters.
Contacts which have a groove caused by a regular use of a different diameter wire.
