I have a turn job that I am doing. The part is roughly 30" in diameter and needs a groove on the ID of the part. My questions is I need to make a carbide piece to cut this since I can not find any insert that matches up. It is .100 deep, .060 wide and at a 23.25 degree angle.
My questions is can I take a solid piece of carbide and wire EDM cut the shape i need? What about the tool edge?
My plan was to build the angle into a special older I will grind. It will be done on a CNC Lathe.
Any insight would be appreciated thanks!
