Electrical Discharge Machining

Chandler Industries uses its in-house wire and sinker Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) as a complement to its CNC machining technology. We utilize EDM for blanking of hard alloys and/or machining intricate features that are impractical or impossible to machine using standard CNC machine tooling and equipment.

EDM technology allows us to machine complex shapes and hard materials with exceptional precision, making it ideal for aerospace, medical, and defense applications where tight tolerances are critical.

EDM Capabilities

Wire EDM

Precision cutting using electrically charged thin wire for intricate profiles and tight tolerances

Sinker EDM

Creates complex cavities and shapes using shaped electrodes for molds and dies

Hard Alloy Blanking

Machine hardened steels, carbide, and exotic alloys that resist conventional cutting

Intricate Features

Fine details and complex geometries impossible with conventional machining

Why Choose EDM?

EDM provides distinct advantages for precision manufacturing applications:

No Tool Pressure

Non-contact process eliminates mechanical stress on delicate parts

Extreme Precision

Achieve tolerances of ±0.0001″ on complex features

Any Conductive Material

Machine hardened steel, titanium, carbide, and super alloys

Superior Surface Finish

Excellent surface quality without secondary finishing operations
