    What are wire erosion services?

    Wire erosion services use electrical discharge machining (EDM) as a manufacturing process to cut and shape metal. Using electrical sparks, our EDM machinery creates quality results for a range of industries. We have provided wire erosion services to several high-profile companies in Defence, Medical & Pharmaceutical, Space and Motorsport industries.

    Our wire erosion services include:

    Wire EDM Wire Erosion Services

    Wire EDM is most suited to tough materials such as Inconel and hardened tool steels. This precision engineering service uses a wire as the electrode and stops materials from eroding from the wire itself by continually switching.

    How does Wire EDM engineering work?

    We offer Wire EDM as a precision engineering service when a high-quality finish is needed. These wire erosion services use small cuts or ‘skims’ of the part to remove microns of material at a time. These wire erosion services are used for the manufacture of intricate, complex parts where high attention to detail is required.

    Micro Precision EDM Wire Erosion Services

    Micro EDM wire erosion services are used on tough materials such as Inconel and hardened steels. Using a micro ‘fine’ wire as the tool, it can also be used to cut parts made from several metals. These include tungsten carbide, titanium, aluminium, copper and other more exotic alloys.

    Spark Erosion/Die Sink EDM Wire Erosion Services

    Spark erosion is where an electric spark between 8,000-12,000 °C is created between an electrode and the workpiece. This effectively vaporises the material to create the required design. Our Charmilles Roboform 350 machine combines high-speed finishing, and micro and automated tool changer capability thus speeding up the production process. Lower electrode wear also keeps down the cost of the product.

    Our State-of-the-Art Wire Erosion Services Machinery

    Our GF machinery CUT 1000 machines are a benchmark in microwire erosion. Using wires of 20 μm, surface finishes of Ra 0.05 μm, 11 μm inside radii, 22 μm slits are now achievable. Production of both small and high-volume batches of components means that wire erosion services are of real benefit in the manufacture of several technologies across a range of industries.

    What are the benefits of wire erosion services?

    Difficult-to-Machine Materials

    Wire erosion services allow us to achieve intricate details inside components that would, otherwise, be too complex or impossible to obtain with traditional cutting methods. The process is accurate and won’t compromise the surface finish of the resulting products.

    Quality Finishes

    As a non-contact manufacturing process, you are guaranteed high-quality finishes with wire erosion services. Therefore, the need for post-processing procedures and surface treatments will be greatly reduced.

    Quick Turnaround

    The machinery we use for our wire erosion services can run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, allowing for fast turnaround times. Our machinery utilises high-speed finishing, and micro and automated tool changer capability thus speeding up the production process.

    Accuracy

    Our state-of-the-art machinery and automated software allow us to produce intricate, complex parts where a high degree of accuracy is required. Furthermore, our E results are predictable and repeatable during every production run.

    Tight Tolerances

    We work with a range of industries where tight tolerances and high attention to detail are essential. This means that we can accommodate intricate and complex parts for a range of high-profile industries.
