OUR MACHINES

EDM Wire Cutting

EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) wire cutting is a highly precise manufacturing process that uses a thin wire electrode to cut through metal with a series of electric sparks.

Hand-On Industries offers Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) Wire Cutting solutions to meet the mechanical component needs of our customers. Using state-of-the-art EDM Wire Cutting machines and in-house CAD/ CAM facilities, we manufacture complex components made from conductive materials with high precision and consistency whilst achieving geometries not possible when utilising CNC Milling or CNC Turning.

Expertise in EDM Wire Cutting allows us to produce components that meet the exacting standards expected by our customers. Any form of design data (from hand sketches to full CAD models) can be used to produce parts. Whether a prototype or full production run is required, we will deliver quality results on time.

Details

Precision

  • Tolerances to within a few micrometres can be achieved through EDM Wire Cutting.
  • Repeatable production runs that adhere to tight tolerances can be easily achieved.
  • Reproducible results are easily achieved.

Iteration

  • Design iteration can be cost effectively undertaken.
  • Experience in operations planning allows for flexible production runs.
  • Careful version control leveraged to produce product variations.

Flexibility

  • Production runs easily scaled from prototype to large scale production.
  • Careful design of operations allows for competitive price breaks.
  • Order to order quantity scaling is easily achieved.

Complexity

  • Complex Geometries, driven by digital CAD models can be produced at scale.
  • Ability to produce ‘square holes’, taper profiles, long aperture holes.
  • Advanced work holding and fixturing strategies allow for precision manufacturing of complex components.
  • Small scale features/ geometries easily achieved by EDM Wire Cutting.
