Intricate Detail
Wire EDM Machining which is also known as Spark EDM is an electro thermal production process in which a thin single-strand metal wire in conjunction with de-ionized water which is used to conduct electricity allows the wire to cut through metal by the use of heat from electrical sparks.
Wire EDM can easily machine complex parts and precision components out of hard conductive materials. Edm wire erosion ( continuous spark erosion or wire cut), can cut intricate contours or cavities in many types of metal including pre-hardened steel. The EDM process is suitable for cutting punches, dies and tools from hard metals that are too difficult to machine using other methods.
Different Materials
We can cut brass, steel, stainless steel, copper, aluminium and more.
The working area of our machine is 300 x 200mm with a working height up to 120mm.
Complex and Close Tolerance Machining
Some of the advantages of EDM wire erosion are:
- Machining complex shapes would otherwise be difficult to produce with conventional cutting tools
- Cutting extremely hard material to very close tolerances
- Cutting very small or thin material where conventional cutting tools may damage the part from excess cutting tool pressure
- A good surface finish can be obtained by skim cutting
- Excellent for samples and one offs
- Low cost – great value for money.
With EDM there is no direct contact between tool and part being machined. Therefore delicate sections and weak materials can be machined without any distortion.
