EDM / Wire EDM Engineer

EDM / Wire EDM Engineer – Precision Engineering Location: Warrington, Cheshire Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience Hours: 41 hours per week Contract: Permanent Are you an experienced EDM Engineer, Wire EDM Machinist, Spark Erosion Engineer or CNC Miller looking for an opportunity to work with advanced precision machining technology?

5S Recruitment is recruiting for an established and expanding precision engineering manufacturer based in Warrington, Cheshire. This is an excellent opportunity to work with specialist Agie Charmilles EDM and Wire EDM equipment, manufacturing intricate, high-precision components where accuracy, technical ability and attention to detail are essential.

Our client operates Agie Charmilles Roboform die-sinking EDM machines, Cut 2000 X-treme and Vertex 2F Wire EDM systems, providing an opportunity to develop your expertise in a technically demanding engineering environment.

We are particularly interested in engineers with a strong CNC milling or toolmaking background who also have experience with EDM, Wire EDM or spark erosion processes. The Role As an EDM / Wire EDM Engineer, you will be responsible for setting, operating and maintaining high-precision electrical discharge machining equipment, producing complex components to demanding engineering specifications.

You will work with Agie Charmilles Roboform die-sinking EDM machines and Cut 2000 X-treme and Vertex 2F Wire EDM systems, preparing workpieces, electrodes and tooling before carrying out precision machining operations. The position involves interpreting detailed engineering drawings, selecting suitable machining parameters, monitoring machining processes and making adjustments to achieve the required dimensional accuracy and surface finish.

You will carry out first-off and in-process inspections using precision measuring equipment, identify machining issues and work closely with CNC Millers, Toolmakers, Programmers and Quality Engineers to maintain manufacturing standards.

This is a hands-on engineering position offering varied, technically interesting work rather than repetitive, high-volume production. What We're Looking For We are looking for an experienced EDM Engineer, Wire EDM Operator, Spark Erosion Machinist or precision engineering professional with a strong understanding of machining processes and component accuracy.

Previous experience setting or operating EDM or Wire EDM machinery is highly desirable, particularly Agie Charmilles equipment, although experience with comparable machinery will also be considered. A strong CNC milling background would be a significant advantage, especially for candidates with experience in precision toolmaking, mould manufacturing or complex component machining.

You should be confident reading engineering drawings, working to tight tolerances and using precision inspection equipment. ...
