Parameters Specific To Sodick:
9) Name the parameters that have the tendency to “add power” to the wire during cutting.
________________________________________________________________________
10) Name the parameters that have the tendency to “take power away” from the wire
during cutting.
________________________________________________________________________
11) Name the parameter (one or two letter abbreviation) that is related to each
description.
A) Time that the power is removed from the wire:
________________________________________________________________________
B) Time that the power is applied to the wire:
________________________________________________________________________
C) These TWO parameters control the motion rate of the table:
