The coated wire electrode series COBRA CUT® was developed with AGIE for EDM machines. They are suitable for a number of different machine models and for practical applications.

The series includes six types of high-quality wire electrodes:

COBRA CUT® [PDF technical data sheet]
These zinc-coated wire electrodes were initially produced for AGIE for their first AC machines. Due to its high elongation, it is particularly suitable for high tapering. It has a limited suitability for machine models with automatic water-jet threading.

COBRA CUT® Type A
[PDF technical data sheet]
This hard, zinc-coated wire electrode is especially suitable for machines with automatic threaders. Due to excellent straightness and precision, it guarantees very good surface qualities and allows precision cuts and fine detail with the highest reliability in automatic operations.

COBRA CUT® Typ G
[PDF technical data sheet]
The modified surface of this wire electrode represents the difference to the COBRA CUT® Type A. It is therefore recommended for conical cuts (tapering) on AGIE EDMs with toroid guides.

COBRA CUT® Typ B
[PDF technical data sheet]
The special CuMg core of this electrode provides high electrical conductivity. Its rougher, oxidized surface benefits flushing conditions and is advantageousfor the cutting of tall work pieces (›100 mm). Recommended for fast cutting of graphite and aluminium alloys. This wire is suitable for tapering to 20° but has limited capability for skim cutting and automatic wire threading.

COBRA CUT® Typ D [PDF technical data sheet]
This wire electrode has been developed for EDM machines with high-power generators. It has a high thermal and electrical conductivity due to its special coating, making it suitable for speed cutting as well as contour precision cutting. This wire electrode may also be used on machines with automatic threading.

COBRA CUT® TYP S
[PDF technical data sheet]
This wire electrode guarantees highest cutting rates on the latest high-power EDM machines. As an improvement of the COBRA CUT® Type D, the thicker diffusion coat provides better cutting performance. It is preferably used for mass production EDM'ing, in production as well as in tool and die making. This EDM wire is suitable for machines with automatic threading.

COBRA CUT® TYP V [PDF technical data sheet]
Cobracut® type V has been developed for wire EDM machines of type AGIECUT PROGRESS. The special composition of the wire significantly benefits the target applications which are : high speed cutting, production of parts and processing of thick workpieces.
