Wire EDM – A Necessity in Manufacturing

6/30/2011

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a highly accurate method of part production at Plouse Precision Manufacturing. Wire EDM involves utilizing an electrically energized thin brass wire to slice through metal - including difficult-to-machine metals – such as titanium, graphite, inconel, hard tool steels, carbide, and aluminum.

Wire EDM technology is essential for higher tolerance parts and repeatable tooling for those in the aerospace and medical device industries. The precision and high-speed of Wire EDM machines allow parts to be more economically produced and repeat the required specifications with ease.

Benefits of our wire EDM machining include:

• Exotic Metals Capabilities
• Complex Geometry
• Efficient Production Capabilities
• Quick Turnarounds
• Reliable Repeatability
• Reduced Costs
• Stress-Free and Burr Free Cutting
• Tight Tolerances and Excellent Finishes

We recently added a fifth Fanuc Robocut machine to our Wire EDM inventory. This additional machine increases our overall production capacity and capabilities.

CNC Sets the Stage

At Plouse Precision Manufacturing, your CNC Specialists for any manufacturing need, CNC machining is the focus of everyday operations. When features are too complex to be finished on the CNC Mill or Lathe, Wire EDM is the efficient solution to complete the project. From small-to-high volume production runs, high precision manufacturing and efficient turnarounds, these two departments work closely to ensure quick turnarounds and precision for all projects.
