We machine a variety of Housings in 5 Axis Milling and in EDM both Wire EDM and Sinker EDM. The 5 Axis Milling allows us to save set up time and get multiple views completed without moving the part. This allows us to hold a lot tighter tolerance of location and size providing a high quality part. EDM is the other major process for Housing being there are impossible places to machine. Sinker EDM allows us to get inside areas inside the housing that can not be machined. So, EDMing features like slots, keyways, notches, and inside corner radius’s is very common. Housing that have geometric features going thru 16 + inches also, can be a challenge but, not with Wire EDM. This process is perfect for cutting features 8 – 16 inches thick. We do a lot of Aluminum Housing that need thick cuts done cost effectively and Wire EDM proves to be the best process for this application.
