Wire-cutting EDM

What is Wire-cutting EDM?

The Wire EDM process uses an electrical spark created between two conductive parts, a wire that cuts and a part from which material will be removed. Using a dielectric solution to control the electrical discharge and applying the metallic wire to cut a programmed contour, a Wire EDM machine can produce extrusion dies, blanking punches, precise molds, special parts with small features and many more.
