patent applications per year produced wire-cut EDM machines If you’ve got grand designs, you need someone strong you can count on. Since 1970, a growing number of European companies have therefore been turning to high-performance EDM machines from world market leader Mitsubishi Electric. Only by producing components in-house is it possible to tailor them perfectly to the intended task. Mitsubishi Electric resorts to its own c ontrols, semiconductors, motors and other items, which are adapted in detail to all requirements. The only thing you notice is that it works – and often for many decades...

RIGIDITY & ISOLATION STRUCTURE Solid machine construction – decoupled periphery Good machining results depend on a solid machine construction – made of proven ductile iron. We’re now going a step further and are decoupling the machine base from all peripheral equipment. In doing so, we’re eliminating all vibration and thermal effects on the machine – for the be nefit of machining accuracy. Continued on page 9 OPTICAL DRIVE SYSTEM The speed of light ... ... for communication by fibre optics. The Tubular Shaft Drive with its highly responsive control fully exploits the benefits of high communication...

Ductile iron.A micrometre removed from the future. Decoupled from vibration and heat The wire-cutting machine stands within a fully enclosed housing - but on its own machine feet . All additional units are arranged on a surrounding floor slab and are fully decoupled from the machine . This eliminates disturbance caused by vibration and thermal effects on the machine . Even more precise axis movement - whatever the load The exceptionally heavy-duty machine bed, only the best, top-flight linear guides and precision assembly ensure the best wire-cutting results in the long term The slides of the...

Floating on air: no friction, no wear ... The Tubular Shaft Motor converts energy directly into motion, without contact, without maintenance and above all without loss of precision – long-term. Combined with the 400% faster fibre-optic- ased b control, this superior technology can truly show what it is capable of. The 12-year genuine manufacturer warranty on positioning accuracy is a guarantee of top-level durability. Your company’s technological edge has a name: Tubular Shaft Motor – from world market leader Mitsubishi Electric. Find out more about it here: www.mitsubishi-edm.de/tsm OPTICAL...

Brilliant finish as good as Ra 0.04 µm in tungsten carbide in steel < Ra 0.10 µm even and p articularly where complex g eometries are concerned It’s the result that counts. How to achieve it with µm precision. Positioning accuracy all the way Positional variation less than 1 µm over the entire 300 mm travel path. Pitch error X: 1.2 (–0.5~+0.7) µm Y: 1.0 (–0.6~+0.4) µm Full circle 30 mm circle and 20 mm cutting height with p recision of 0.73 µm in circularity. PRECISE FINISH CIRCIUT It’s the contour that counts ± 2 µm – maximum dimensional accuracy here t aking the example of a 20 mm tall component....

Twice-as-fast spark detection The high-speed digital control works up to twice as fast as traditional machines. A great basis for immaculate component results – in terms of geometrical trueness and surface roughness. Pulse duration: 1 billionth of a second. NANO PULSE V-POWER SUPPLY The royal road to nanoprecision. Response time is decisive The lower the energy input, the better and more stabile the cut edges. A larger number of shorter pulses achieve the highest precision ever coupled with good cutting speed – minimising microcracking in the material as a side-effect. The reduced damage in the...

Automatic wire threading for any eventuality Maximum precision from the outset. Automatic wire threader for superfine wire. Automatic wire threading – equipped for any situation Automatic threading in the tiniest bores, even in difficult applications. The innovative flow analysis for the jet stream takes the effort out of your work. The entire process has been optimised to the point where wire diameters of 0.03–0.20 mm can be threaded with absolute dependability. Round diamond guide Maximum precision and durability ensure the best results in the long run – inclusive of maintenance- friendliness...

Intuitive operation and knowledge at a keystroke. Help at a keystroke The complete machine documents inclusive of maintenance instructions are always available, and the right help is quickly found. Comprehensibility is aided by photos and 3D depiction. 3D data import Import 3D data in Parasolid® format and create 3D shapes with the integrated 3D CAD/CAM. By using them, you can generate NC data with the associated machining parameters. Even more precise results are achieved with intelligent analysis of the machining conditions by the Power Master 3D that thinks ahead. Parasolid is a registered...
