Wire Cutting & Wire Straightening Services
Overview
Novo Precision offers wire cutting and wire straightening. We straighten and cut wire in a wide variety of sizes, lengths and material and our cut pieces of wire will meet your length and straightness tolerances. We can cut wire with diameters as low as 0.004" up to 0.375" made from aluminum, stainless steel, steel, precious metals and most linear material. We also cut precious metals to include cutting gold, silver, and platinum from either spool or rod. Novo doesn't hold any minimum quantities and our wire straightening and wire cutting service can be customized to help fulfill your needs. In addition to wire we also cut tubing and cut strips as well as straighten those materials.
All of our wire cutting leaves ends with minimal to no burr and the wire straightened to customer tolerance levels. Novo also offers secondary operations which include wire forming, bending, stamping and many other applications. We also offer batching and packaging options to create a one stop shop for your production needs. We can work with our customers through one time orders, blanket orders or setup a pull system using kanban to optimize flexibility and minimize your lead-times. At Novo we have been cutting wire for over 30 years and strive to be your partner in your wire supply needs. For more information feel free to contact us or request a quote and one of our experienced sales associates will answer your specific questions.
Testimonial
We started working with Bill Hazard and the team at Novo 2 years ago and I can honestly say that they have been the most quality and customer service driven company we have worked with in the 39 years I've been in the Component Manufacturing business. They were able to redesign and help our customer bring to market a new and improved product in a very short demanding time frame.
Bill is always looking for ways to reinvest and grow his company as well as his customers companies.
The Novo team has been a pleasure to work with and we are looking forward to our next project.

Round and Shaped Wire / Thin Strip / Tubing / Ferrules
Novo Precision specializes in applications where the cut pieces need to be straight, the cut length tolerance is +/- .002” or greater, and a square, burr free cut is necessary. The quill-on-quill shearing concept employed results in cuts with minimal distortion that can sometimes eliminate the need for chamfering ends for leads in automated assembly operations.
The tube shearing process incorporates arbors to support the ID and OD of the tubing on both ends, which results in minimal distortion and burr free sheared ends. This can be particularly beneficial when cutting precious metal tubing since there is no waste resulting from the kerf of an abrasive wheel process. Tubing diameters to .250" and cut lengths to .375" can be processed.
Tantalum Markers
Tantalum markers for use in medical applications are produced in a wide range of diameters and lengths. Novo Precision manufactures tantalum markers from ASTM F560 in the full hard condition, and can provide a Material Certification and Certificate of Compliance for each product shipment. Passivation to specifications A967 (citric acid) and F86 (nitric acid) can also be included. Other medical markers include radiographic markers, implant markers, bone markers and radiopaque markers.
We can quote and supply solid cylindrical medical marker pins made from round or shaped solid material processed from coil or rod. If you have any requirements for solid markers, please provide me with the diameter and length along with the quantity you need to order, and I will quote accordingly. Note that the length of the marker needs to be approximately 1.5 times the diameter of the wire in order to shear cut and maintain a good cut quality with minimal deformation.
