SUMMARY:Webinar: Differentiating High-Quality PCD Wire Dies
DESCRIPTION:The webinar “Differentiating High-Quality PCD Wire Dies”\, presented by Hector Ferrer Ribas and Andrew Gledhill\, is a technical session designed for wire die tool makers and wire producers. The presenters will cover the fundamentals of carbide and PCD (polycrystalline diamond)\, highlighting key factors that differentiate high-quality wire dies from substandard ones. The session will feature an interactive segment\, potentially using a Kahoot game\, to engage participants in identifying red flags\, such as EDM cutting problems and cracks. Attendees will gain insights into the causes and consequences of material defects\, including their impact on Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). A practical checklist will be provided to assess superior products based on manufacturing processes\, material consistency\, traceability\, and supplier expertise. The webinar will also explore state-of-the-art innovations in PCD materials\, testing methods to prove quality\, and the importance of certifications and quality assurance processes. \nThis webinar is organized by The Wire Association International’s Education Center and Hyperion Materials & Technologies. \nRegistration Coming Soon! \nThis webinar is part of a two-part series—you may choose to participate in one or both sessions based on your interests; separate registration is required for each part. Free to WAI Members\, $75 for non-members. If you plan to register as a non-member for both parts ($75 each)\, consider becoming a WAI member first—a one-year membership is also $150 and provides access to discounted rates and additional benefits.
