We look at the most precise metal cutting technique called "Wire EDM" (Wire electrical discharge machining). Cut any conductive metal, no matter the hardness. Use it to cut 3D metal prints from the printing bed surface. Learn more at: https://holocreators.com/blog/wire-ed...

Electrical Discharge Machining uses electrical current (sparks) to cut through metal “like butter”. The electro-thermal production process uses a combination of a single-strand wire and deionized water. Using Wire EDM to cut through metal is very accurate, but the process is slow and expensive.
