Proper handling of EDM wire

• Always store bedra EDM spools in their original packaging in a dry area!

The EDM spools are packed in in shock, dust and oxidationproof material to protect the wire from shipping damage and contamination. The wire should be stored in the original bedra packaging until ready for use. This will ensure the highest quality for your EDM applications.

• Used spools handling procedures

It is very important to properly secure the loose end of the wire on partially used spools. This will prevent the wire from shifting on the spool and becoming tangled. Improper handling and storage techniques can cause unwinding problems and unnecessary wire breakage. Figures 1 and 2 show two correct ways to secure the loose end of the wire. Figures 3 and 4 show incorrect ways and should definitely be avoided. Partially used EDM spools should be stored in their original packaging material when not in use. This will minimize contamination and shifting of the wire on the spool.

• Warranty will lapse in case of improper storage!
