Wire EDM Cutting

Wire cutting using EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) or spark machining is a fabrication process used to form metal components into complex structures using electrical discharges or sparks.

Unlike more traditional cutting methods, wire EDM machining produces extremely precise cuts in intricate shapes, creating sharp corners and difficult angles or tapered designs.
