Weighing 12,566 lbs., the SP64 is a solid workhorse with the ability to handle large workloads. Many operator conveniences are incorporated into the machine to improve productivity, including a full-function hand box with LCD display, rapid feed rates of 78 ipm for fast set-ups, an auto-threading system with long life "V" Guides and a dual-action work tank door for ease in part loading.
The Wire Wizard™ control, PVG™ Process Control Technology and Quick Connect™ auto-threading technologies all help manage an extremely low maintenance, superior quality wire EDM machine.
Makino’s quick-connect "dual-jet" automatic wire threading unit has a fast 15-second thread time. It can be used for many diverse applications, from tall workpieces to precision small holes. A simple, straight-forward design makes Makino wire threaders reliable and very easy to service. Only five minutes per week for routine maintenance keeps the threader in top running order. Unlike other systems that require removal of the wire guides for cleaning, Makino’s unique "V" guides can be cleaned and serviced without removal, saving time and money. Because of their unique design, Makino warrants the guides for 12,000 hours, more than any other manufacturer.
