The Advantages of EDM Wire
The Machining of Complex Geometric Forms
Complex, contoured shapes can be produced in one piece rather than several,
in the exact configuration that is required.
The Rapid, Economic Production of Prototypes and Low Run Parts
The ability to accurately machine complex designs, can eliminate or reduce
fixture and tooling costs for one of a kind or low run production parts.
Formed through the wire EDM process, parts can be immediately used in assembly, with little or no additional finishing.
Precise Machining of Pre-hardened Materials
Because hardened materials can be EDM eroded, the need for the heat treatment
of machined parts is eliminated, avoiding potential distortion.
Machining to Tight Tolerances, Avoiding Distortion and Stress
Very low machining forces allow tight tolerances of up to 2 microns to
be achieved. With little or no stress imparted into the work only light
clamping is necessary. Thin materials can also be machined without distortion.
The Accurate and Economic Machining of Exotic Materials
Exotic materials including A-286 Superalloys, medical grade stainless,
titanium, Hastelloy, tungsten carbide, molybdenum, aluminium alloys and
copper can all be machined. Better utilisation of valuable materials is
provided through chipless machining.
Absolute Consistency Between Machined Parts.
Because with wire EDM there is no contact between the cutting wire and
the surface, there is no tooling wear and absolute consistency can be
achieved on every machined part.
