WIRE EDM

Ideal Tool & Manufacturing has Wire & Sinker EDM Capacity to meet your production needs.

Wire EDM—also known as Wire Cutting, Wire burning, and Traveling Wire EDM—uses spark erosion to machine or remove material with a traveling wire electrode from any electrically conductive material.

The wire electrode usually consists of brass or zinc-coated brass material.
