Sinker / Plunge EDM

In conjunction with Automated's extensive Wire EDM capabilities we also offer four-axis CNC Sinking EDM as well.   This capability allows us to better serve the needs of the toolmakers and component manufacturers.   With this equipment we can provide micro machining of components small enough to hold in the palm of your hand all the way up to components that weigh upwards of 1100 pounds.   Its technically advanced generator can produce super fine surface finishes for those demanding applications as well as having a maximum output current of 128 amps for the larger burns.   It has a programmable C-Axis for applications such as threads, helixes, and contour machining.   It provides an oversized work-tank and generous travels of 12.6" x 17.7" for multiple component setups, multi-cavity components or extremely large work-pieces.   We can provide almost any style of electrode needed for your project including those that require 3-axis surface machining.   If you choose, you can provide your own electrodes for your project.    We utilize 3R Macro tooling but can adapt to utilize other brands and styles of holders as well.   Whether your project requires CNC Sinking EDM as one of many operations in the manufacturing of your complete component or you simply require EDM job shop services, we look forward to the opportunity to serve your need.
