Wire and sinker electrical discharge machining (EDM) can perform high-precision micromachining of complex components in difficult-to-machine materials like hardened steels, high nickel alloys and carbide. EDM offers highly accurate and repeatable capabilities while also providing superior surface finishes. This makes it perfect for high-precision applications including injection molds, stamping dies, medical implants, medical devices and aerospace components, just to name a few. Electrode Design for Micromachining For micro-scale features, EDM has the capability to use very small electrodes, with features that are sometimes smaller than 0.1mm / .004” in. Electrodes are often made from graphite, copper or tungsten, which withstand repeated sparking and provide precision machining capabilities. Control over Micromachining High-frequency pulses and very low discharge energy levels are used to control the amount of material removed, achieving the fine, delicate machining necessary for micro-scale applications. Precise CNC control and advanced software allow the EDM process to follow complex paths, resulting in intricate micro-features with tight tolerances. Finishing and Precision Due to the minimal force involved, EDM can create sharp edges, small holes, fine grooves and other intricate details without causing deformation. Benefits of Wire EDM in Micromachining High precision and accuracy: Wire EDM offers exceptional precision, which is crucial for micromachining applications where even minor deviations can be problematic.
