FORM 1000 At a glance High precision micro machining Patented monobloc and highest precision With a modulus of rigidity that is twice as high as normal designs, a particularly accurate rectangularity of the two main axes X and Y is achieved. The slide blocks run in roller guide rails which are mounted directly on the monobloc. The guide ways of X and Y axis are separate so that mutual interference is impossible and no tripping errors occur in the end sections of the travel paths. Mechanical, generator and control system With the new generator module for micro erosion, integrated in the work...

User friendliness With the new design of the remote control with touch screen, the preparatory operations for machining operation with axis movement, measuring cycles and start of erosion are quicker and more reliable. This user friendliness is combined with the user interface Vision 5, which allows fl exible data input, adaptable to the surrounding environment. The FORM 1000 is equipped with a powerful control, including new features tailored to the needs and applications in micro erosion. The direct import of data of the workpiece and the electrode, a system of integrated management of...

Great fl exibility for standard and micro applications The FORM 1000 is equipped with a fi xed table. The work tank and the dielectric level are automatically adjusted to the workpiece height, which allows comfortable access to the work zone for the operator. The machine has a standard granite table which, located at a lower level, offering the advantage of a high distance between table and quill for standard workpieces and electrode dimensions. An additional optional granite table allows great comfort and accessibility in the work area when machining micro applications requiring, for...
