At Wheeler, we turn your most complex ideas into results. Our Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) capabilities are here to help you create complex parts with ease. Our wire EDM services are built for projects that demand high accuracy, complex shapes, or tough materials. Whatever your application, we will deliver consistent and accurate results.
What Is Wire EDM?
Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) is a non-contact, precision cutting process that uses a thin, electrically charged wire to erode conductive materials with extreme accuracy. Unlike traditional machining, it doesn’t use physical force, but rather the electrical current. This makes it ideal for delicate parts, hardened metals, and intricate geometries. Wire EDM produces burr-free edges, tight internal corners, and complex profiles.
Why Choose Our Wire EDM Services?
Tight Tolerances — Accuracy to ±0.0005″
No Burrs or Warping — Ideal for delicate or hardened materials
Complex Profiles — Cut features traditional tools can’t reach
Material Versatility — Hardened steel, carbide, titanium, Inconel, and more
