Surface Finishing for wire cutting

Yicen Precision offers a variety of finishing options tailored to your project needs.

As-Cut

The default finish directly from the wire cutting process, featuring visible tool paths and minor surface roughness.

Bead Blasting

A matte, uniform finish is achieved by blasting the surface with fine media such as glass beads. This treatment is perfect for reducing glare and improving visual consistency.

Powder Coating

 A durable, oven-cured finish applied in a range of colors and textures.

Custom Finishes

 Have a unique requirement? Submit an RFQ and our team will collaborate with you to develop a customized finishing solution.

Polishing

Mechanical polishing delivers a smooth, mirror-like surface, ideal for parts that require both refined aesthetics and low friction.

Electropolishing

 An electrochemical treatment that smooths metal surfaces, reduces roughness, and enhances corrosion resistance, ideal for stainless steel components.

Deburring

Removes sharp edges and residual burrs from the wire cutting process to improve handling safety and surface quality, especially for precision parts.

Passivation

Removes surface contaminants and free iron from stainless steel.

Elevate Your Manufacturing with Yicen Precision’s Wire Cutting Services

In high-precision manufacturing, every cut matters. When extreme accuracy, fine detailing, and a smooth finish are non-negotiable, wire cutting (also known as Wire EDM,  Electrical Discharge Machining) stands out as the superior choice. At Yicen Precision, we bring advanced wire cutting technology to your most complex metal machining needs, ensuring accuracy, quality, and reliability every time.

Understanding Wire Cutting: The Power of Precision Spark

Wire cutting uses a thin wire, usually made of brass or molybdenum, as an electrode to cut through electrically conductive materials. The process doesn’t involve direct contact. Instead, electrical sparks generated between the wire and the material erode it into the desired shape. This allows for ultra-precise cutting with minimal mechanical stress.

Unlike traditional machining, wire EDM excels in crafting intricate geometries, internal contours, and tight-tolerance components, making it indispensable for industries like aerospace, medical, and mold making.
