Professional & Affordable Micro Precision EDM Machining
What is Micro Precision EDM Machining?
Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a manufacturing process that uses electrical sparks to cut into the metal, create a desired shape and detach it from the metal sheet. Using a micro ‘fine’ wire as the tool, Micro Precision EDM Machining is particularly suited to tough materials such as Inconel and hardened tool steels. It can also be used to cut parts made from tungsten carbide, titanium, aluminium, copper and other more exotic alloys providing that the material is electrically conductive.
Our State-of-the-Art Machinery
Our two GF machinery CUT 1000 machines are specifically designed to meet micro ‘fine’ wire EDM demands in terms of precision, productivity predictability and repeatability of machining results. They are a benchmark in micro-wire 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 Micro EDM technology is of real benefit in the manufacture of connectors, medical components, watchmaking, as well as automotive, aerospace and satellite technologies.
With our recently acquired Sarix T1-T4 micro erosion machine SR-HPM we can now offer a micro EDM deep hole drilling service. This device can reach holes of 100 microns with stringent tolerances down to 3-5 microns.
What are the benefits of Micro Precision EDM Machining?
Difficult-to-Machine Materials
The process of Micro Precision EDM Machining is particularly suited to difficult-to-machine, tough, materials such as Inconel and hardened tool steels. The process is accurate and won’t compromise the surface finish of the resulting products.
Quality Finishes
As it is a non-contact manufacturing process, Micro Precision EDM Machining achieves high-quality finishes. This means that the need for post-processing procedures and surface treatments will be greatly reduced.
Quick Turnaround
Our machinery can run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, allowing for very competitive pricing and quick turnaround times. Whether you require small or high-volume batch work, one-off products or prototypes, we can help with it all.
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 results are predictable and repeatable during every production run.
Tight Tolerances
We work with a range of industries where tight tolerances are essential. Our machinery can accommodate intricate, complex parts, and can reach holes of 100 microns with stringent tolerances down to +/-5 microns.
