I was wondering what is typical production pricing for wire EDM cuts? Per square inch or square mm?
Came accross some ch**nese insert holders where the slotting is evidently done with wire EDM cutting.
When the total price for the insert holder is about 4 usd the EDM wire cut has to be dirt cheap. I would have imagined that simple slotting like in these would be done with slotting saw but apparently wire EDM is cost-effective alternative ( seen one with slug still in place...)
I'd say that there is ½ to 1 square inch to cut these:
