Xact Wire EDM manufactures components for both prototype and production molds used in a variety of applications, from overmolds and insert molds to micro injection molding for surgical devices. The company’s contract wire EDM services can also be used for cavity and component rebuilding or repairs.

Wire EDM is ideal for working with the hardened and pre-hardened metals frequently used in moldmaking such as P20, S7, H13 and 420 stainless steel. Xact says it can perform EDM cutting directly on the mold or by using wire EDM blanks to manufacture specific mold components or inserts.

The injection mold building customers Xact receive are often faced with strict demands, requiring a proven, cost-effective wire EDM cutting and EDM hole drilling in any conductive material, including hardened tool steels. With over 50 EDM machines and 24/7 capability, the company is able to offer its clients high precision with short lead times.

Moreover, because Xact exclusively provides EDM services, it is said to be the ideal partner for companies in the injection mold industry, and often function as an extension of the moldmaker’s own in-house EDM capabilities.
