Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM)

The demands placed on manufacturing today facilitates the necessity of EDM. With the development and use of more exotic materials, the use of conventional machines will reach their limit. Machining complex and highly accurate parts in hard materials will direct engineers a company with EDM capabilities. Sea Air Space Machining & Molding is that company.

We are Nadcap registered in non conventional machining for sinker EDM. Nadcap registrations are granted to companies who manage cost-effective, accredited processes that continually improve the aerospace industry.

Accuracy: EDM is very accurate. Tolerances of .0002 are easily obtainable.

Flexibility: EDM can create shapes and contours that other types of machines cannot.

Materials: EDM can be used on any conductive material whether it has been hardened or not. Stainless steel, titanium, tungsten, copper, carbide as well as tool steels.

Prototyping: EDM is a rapid process due to the speed in which designs can be changed.

Delicate: EDM is a delicate machining process because there is no cutting force. This enables the production of finely detailed parts not possible with conventional cutting methods.

Finish: EDM surface can be as fine as 4Ra without polishing. No need for secondary operations.

Distortion: EDM is capable of cutting hardened materials. Forms can be machined after heat treat thereby eliminating the problem of distortion caused by heat treat.

Production: EDM is a cost effective method of producing many complex parts by being able to stack parts with part repeatability that run "lights out."
