With many different machining technologies and a team of highly experienced personnel, Micropulse West by Fathom is here to provide you with the machining services you need.

Electrical discharge machining, commonly called EDM, is used to create parts and components out of conductive materials that other machining operations cannot handle because of the hardness of the material, the precision of the required cut or other factors. EDM is used in many applications, but it is especially useful for creating prototypes, dies, and molds because it can cut very intricate pieces and cut through hard metals such as kovar, titanium, Inconel, carbide, and hardened tool steel. The medical, aerospace, automotive and defense industries use EDM machining extensively. EDM may also be used for removing drills and broken items from cavities. Micropulse has a complete range of EDM machines that will suit any customer needs.

Wire EDM (Wire-Cut EDM or Wire Cutting) uses a thin single strand of spooled wire that is fed through a workpiece and submerged or flushed with deionized water. The deionized water constantly flushes away small particulates as the electrode cuts the material and maintains thermal stability. There is no physical contact between the wire and the machined part. The wire controls the path of the electrical discharge and as the wire voltage charges it removes layers of material with each pass.

The wire EDM machines at Fathom Manufacturing’s Arizona production facility are capable of cutting plates as thick as 16.5” and as thin as .001” which is usually accurate up to 0.0002” and can have a cutting path or kerf as small as 0.006” and internal radiance of 0.003”. This helps with making punches, tools, and dies from hard metals that are difficult to machine with other methods.

Wire EDM services are perfect for projects that require the materials to be cut straight through or tapered. Since the hardness of the material being cut has no effect on the cutting speed, wire EDM can be used to cut a wide range of conductive materials including hard metals or materials that are fairly brittle and would be damaged by other machining processes.

There are a number of reasons why wire EDM is the best option for certain projects.

Wire EDM is more accurate than plasma, die, laser cutting or conventional tools. It is also a cost effective method for projects with low quantities.

We can achieve small radius cuts that are not possible from conventional milling.

There is no direct contact between the cutting tools and the part that is being machined. Leaving the machined part precise without any heat treat distortion.

Our wire EDM services can cut through many different types and sizes of metals, including kovar, titanium, carbide, and metals that require extreme care. These metals can range from thin and brittle to the incredibly thick and strong.

Since no cutting forces are applied to the material Wire EDM services can also cut very small pieces, corners, internal fillets, and contours, which can be accurate up to .0002”. These shapes may be too delicate and intricate for other machining methods.

We can handle small prototyping projects which require quick turn around or high volume, large run machining projects requiring 24/7 production.

13 ½” x 21 ½” x 16 ¾” however, In some cases, parts can be larger, please inquire with design.
