Problems solved by technology

The main problems of machining tiny V-shaped grooves on injection mold cores with forming tools are: the manufacturing process of tiny forming tools is complicated and the cost is high; when forming tools machine mold steel, the tool wears seriously, and even the edge will jump; Material is removed by mechanical force, burrs will be generated on the processed surface, and the surface roughness is relatively large
This method can also be used for micro V-groove processing, but on the one hand, serious electrode loss leads to larger rounded corners at the bottom of the V-groove; Some areas of the groove are over-processed and the depth is large, and some areas are under-processed but the depth is small, resulting in poor depth consistency in the length direction
[0005] To sum up, the machining of micro V-groove currently adopts the methods of forming tool machining and forming electrode EDM, but the machining of forming tools has high production cost of micro forming tools, serious tool wear and low surface quality, and the forming process is difficult. The problem of large rounded corners at the bottom and poor depth consistency during electrode EDM
