EDM is such an important part of who we are, what we do, and our history, that it is part of our name. We at Automated pride ourselves in being one of the premier Wire EDM service providers and component manufacturers utilizing EDM in the Midwest. Because of our diverse customer base associated with a number of industries we have developed a competency in Wire EDM applications second to none.
Our areas of expertise lie in those applications that may require high-taper / four-axis contouring, complex part geometries, a large work-piece envelope, machining of difficult alloys, or extremely fine finishes and tolerances. Applications range from prototypes, to tooling components, medical devices and instruments, critical components used in defense and armament applications, to components for power generation, computer manufacturing, food processing, special equipment applications, and the list goes on. These components range from being small enough to hold in the palm of your hand, to ones weighing close to two tons, to complete assemblies.
At Automated we draw from our years of experience in EDM, CNC machining, tool and process design, fixturing techniques, and programming technology to provide you with the best engineered solution for your most challenging projects.
We have a comprehensive list of EDM and support technologies and an experienced staff that knows them well. We look forward to the opportunity to put our experience to work for you.
