BENEFITS OF WIRE EDM

  • Precise & accurate: Can create small, complex, intricate parts
  • Can work with many hard materials, as long as it’s magnetic
  • Consistent & Repeatable: As an automated, CNC machining process, the same product can be produced over and over again
  • Does not exert a lot of force to cut, so there is less chance of damaging the piece itself
  • The finish is smooth and burr-free
