VT machining specialises in CNC EDM Drilling Tungsten Carbide. Because Tungsten Carbide is extreme hardness for tooling and wear parts, and its machinability is machined almost exclusively by grinding and EDM, we plan each job around the grade to protect accuracy and surface quality.
CNC EDM Drilling Capability for Tungsten Carbide
- Extreme hardness (HRA 89–94)
- Ground/EDM only
- Wear-resistant
- Tooling & dies
Machining Tungsten Carbide with CNC EDM Drilling
The machinability of Tungsten Carbide is machined almost exclusively by grinding and EDM. For CNC EDM Drilling we select tooling, feeds, speeds and coolant to match, keeping the Tungsten Carbide workpiece stable and the result accurate.
Because we machine Tungsten Carbide regularly, proven settings shorten setup and keep quality repeatable across reorders.
Design Tips for CNC EDM Drilling Tungsten Carbide
A few design choices make a real difference to cost and quality. EDM suits sharp internal corners, thin ribs and hardened Tungsten Carbide that cannot be milled; allowing a small corner radius where possible speeds the cut. If you send your model early, we will return practical DFM feedback before you commit to production.
CNC EDM Drilling Quality & Inspection
Consistent quality comes from disciplined process control. Critical dimensions on Tungsten Carbide parts are checked in-process and verified at final inspection using calibrated instruments and, where required, CMM measurement. Full documentation — dimensional reports, mill certs, FAIR — is available when your programme needs it.
Why Tungsten Carbide?
Specifying Tungsten Carbide for CNC EDM Drilling Tungsten Carbide is usually about its properties: extreme hardness for tooling and wear parts. Tell us the condition you need and we machine to it.
Secondary Operations & Finishing
We complete Tungsten Carbide components with the secondary steps your drawing calls for. We arrange heat treatment, surface treatment, marking and assembly as needed. Tell us the final spec and we will plan the full route so parts arrive ready to use.
CNC EDM Drilling Tolerances & Surface Finish
EDM holds tolerances to roughly ±0.002–0.005 mm with no cutting force on the Tungsten Carbide part, producing fine, controlled surface textures and sharp internal corners impossible to mill.
The tightest tolerances are reserved for the features your drawing flags as critical. Share your tolerance scheme and we will confirm what is realistic before quoting.
Applications of CNC EDM Drilling Tungsten Carbide
CNC EDM Drilling of Tungsten Carbide supports parts across aerospace, medical, automotive, electronics, semiconductor, energy and general industrial sectors. We scale from one-off prototypes to ongoing production while holding the same quality.
