EDM Machines

Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a highly accurate machining process used when conventional cutting methods are not suitable. By using controlled electrical discharges to erode conductive materials, EDM enables the production of intricate geometries, fine details and deep cavities with exceptional precision. It is widely used in toolmaking, aerospace, medical and high-specification engineering applications where surface finish and dimensional accuracy are critical.

Makino EDM Solutions

We supply advanced EDM technology from Makino, supporting high-precision production across a wide range of industries.

  • Wire EDM uses an energised wire electrode in a dielectric fluid to cut complex profiles and detailed part features with high repeatability and fine surface finishes.
  • Sinker EDM uses a shaped electrode to produce complex cavities and intricate forms, delivering excellent accuracy while minimising electrode wear and manufacturing costs.
  • EDM Hole Drilling uses a rotating tubular electrode with high-pressure flushing to produce fast, accurate small-diameter deep holes, particularly suited to aerospace and production applications.

Makino EDM platforms are engineered for long-term reliability, process stability and reduced consumable costs, helping maintain consistent quality in demanding environments.
