The Right Tool for Hard Parts
When a part is hardened, exotic, or too intricate for a mill, wire EDM is the answer. We pair it with grinding and machining so the whole job stays under one roof.
Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can you wire cut?
Anything conductive — hardened tool steel, carbide, Inconel, titanium, copper, brass. No heat-affected zone, so hardened parts stay hard.
What tolerances can you hold?
Typically ±0.0005" on profile. The AI pricing reflects tighter finishes where the drawing calls for them.
Can you cut parts after heat treatment?
Yes — that's the point. Wire EDM cuts hardened material without softening it.
Do you accept DXF files?
Yes, DXF is ideal for 2D profiles. STEP works too.
