The Sinker EDM, initially used to produce die openings for stamping dies, was later used to produce intricate punches, and production parts. These are single-axis machines, usually vertical, which cut in one direction. Twenty years ago, when someone mentioned EDM everyone thought of Sinker EDM. (read more)

Although the basic cutting process is still the same, in actual use, CNC Sinker EDM is almost a totally different process, offering advantages of faster cutting, improved geometric accuracy, lower electrode wear, ability to hold tighter tolerances, improve surface finishes, and reduced cost through greater automation.

All materials that can conduct electricty are a candidate for EDM; Inconel, Mild Steels, Stainless Steel, Tool Steels (Fully Hardened), Super Alloys, Tungsten Carbide, Monel, Rhenium, Silicon Carbide Tantalum, Aluminum, Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Castings / Forgings. The advantages of EDM over conventional machining include... (read more)

The feature is top-quality source for all EDM and EDM-related services, from prototyping and small hole drilling to long run productions of elaborate shapes, as well as sources for EDM machines and components. (read more)

EDM is a non-traditional metal removal process in which small amounts of conductive material are eroded away in a very controlled manner. A power supply, or generator, creates hundreds of thousands of tiny electrical sparks per second that jump across a gap between a specifically shaped electrode and the workpiece. (read more)

R.S. Precision is pleased to announce its newest addition: Mitsubishi EA8PV-Advance Ultra-Precision Micro-Hole CNC Sinker EDM Machine. Capable of producing very high quality holes down to .005" diameter with aspect ratios as high as 50:1, and the capability of achieving holes as small as .0005" diameter with lower aspect ratios. It is capable of machining accu... (read more)

We are one of the nation's leading Wire EDM job shops, long famous for our Give Us A Challenge attitude. To consistently maintain tolerances as small as .0001, our technicians utilize the most accurate equipment available today. Names like Charmilles, Mitsubishi, and Sodick. (read more)

EDM is a manufacturing process by which an electrical spark is discharged near the surface of a (electrically conductive) work piece. The result of the process causes the work piece parent material to vaporize into small particulate matter. This small particulate matter is then swept away by a water or oil flush. (read more)

This is another specialized EDM machine that uses a continuously moving, or "traveling", brass wire, which is threaded through a start hole in a workpiece, typically a die plate, to cut very accurate openings with very little skilled labor or intervention required. (read more)
