A prominent manufacturer in the thermal insulation industry faced significant challenges in cutting large, thick graphite insulation barrels. Their traditional cutting methods were proving inadequate, leading to inefficiencies and subpar product quality.

In addressing the need to cut various shapes from graphite plates with thicknesses ranging from 10 mm to a substantial 300 mm, the challenge of Complex Profile Cut became apparent for our client. Graphite, being a non-conductive material, rendered traditional EDM wire-cut machines ineffective. The utilization of a bandsaw posed its own set of challenges, including limitations in changing cutting direction and generating less-than-desirable shapes.

This is a story about Graphite Block Slicing. In the world of industrial manufacturing, accomplishing challenging In this case, our client faced the daunting task of precisely slicing massive graphite blocks, some as vast as 1.2 meters in every dimension. These blocks took various forms, including squares and circles, and the goal was to transform them into a multitude of thin plates, ranging from mere millimeters to substantial centimeters in thickness.
