Machining to your unique specifications

KLH Industries, Inc. has remained a pioneer of EDM technology for the past 21 years. Our machines in the wire EDM (WEDM) department are capable of working within +/- 0.00005” tolerances and handling parts up to 5 tons or over 2 ft tall.

In fact, according to Mitsubishi EDM, KLH houses “the tallest work piece capacity of any fully-submerged wire EDM on the market.” Submersing a part balances thermal levels within the tank, which allows for reliable accuracy and faster cutting times.

KLH’s large capacity WEDM machines are ideal for high-tolerance machining, such as: turbine disks found in the aerospace industry, MRI/X-Ray equipment in the medical industry, and gear box/brake parts for the wind energy industry. Whether prototypes, one part, or high-production runs, KLH has a WEDM machine to match your requirements, and exceed your expectations.
