New EDM technology can improve cycle time reduction and enhance cost savings.   OFFLINE PROGRAMMING FOR COMPETITIVE SOLUTIONS Bill Paul and Yoshiharu Yoshioka There are two issues with EDM operations in the U.S. that hamper production and cost efficiency....

In response to these dwindling lead times, Moldmakers evaluated its processes and realized an equipment upgrade would let them take on additional projects that had extremely short lead times. At the heart of the upgrade was a pair of Makino EDNC65 RAM EDM machines.   AUTOMATED...

The same higher-level precision and surface finish capability as the U32j, but with larger travels.
The U53j Wire EDM offers the same higher level precision and  surface finish capability as the U32j, but with larger travels.

Makino's EDNC65S RAM EDM combines rugged construction, simple programming and advanced design and performance features. The result is an EDM that machines 30 percent faster than manual EDM machines, while utilizing Makino's High-Quality Surface Finish (HQSF) technology to achieve superior speeds...

The EDGE3i machine provides open and unrestricted access for the operator to the work zone with a 4-sided programmable rise and fall work tank, and achieves reliable and repeatable precision through a stationary work table design. 

Machining speeds are increased by using higher frequency while simultaneously using lower current to improve surface finishes. The advancements on the HFG Generator also provide improvements in machining speeds even when the ultimate surface finishes are not required. As shown below, a 2.0” (50mm)...
