Makino’s EDGE2 Sinker EDM machine with fine-hole option achieves maximum micromachining performance with superior surface finishes. The EDGE2 with fine-hole option features 12 x 10 x 10 inch travels and weighs a sturdy 6,000 pounds. The machine bed is a heavily ribbed, single piece casting. Anti-friction linear guides and bearings complete the high-performance design, combining excellent rigidity with low-mass dynamics. The heavy-duty construction, combined with the fixed table, brings high levels of rigidity to every application.
Makino’s award-winning drop tank design with zero fill time and dielectric chiller completes these features. The drop tank improves many aspects of the EDM process. The retractable tank walls provide wide-open table access for safe, simple slide-on loading and faster, more accurate setups. And the adjustable tank depth allows optimal matching of dielectric fluid level to workpiece size for overall dielectric savings.
