H.E.A.T.

H.E.A.T. (High Energy Applied Technology) is a new advancement from Makino in Wire EDM Technology that dramatically reduces cutting times while maintaining exceptional part straightness, and 1 or 2 pass cutting accuracy.

H.E.A.T smokes the Wire EDM competition, cutting parts 18% to 44% faster while holding tolerances of straightness to 0.0005" (T.I.R.) with one pass and 0.0002" (T.I.R.) with two passes. Skim speeds are increased by 50 to 100%. These results are being achieved in real world applications, including poor flushing conditions, non-sealed nozzle applications, uneven surface thickness and through holes, as well as parts up to six inches tall!

H.E.A.T. is ideal for practical high speed performance in difficult, real world production Medical, Aerospace, and EDM Job Shops. H.E.A.T. packs a powerful punch!
