Mitsubishi Makes a Splash with Precision Waterjet for EDM
Wood Dale, IL - Mitsubishi introduces the first waterjet line designed specifically to work hand-in-hand with EDM technology. The Waterjet line brings speed and flexibility to EDM shops, while maintaining the level of reliability and accuracy required in EDM manufacturing.
Mitsubishi experts have played an active role in the Waterjet machines' design, making sure they're engineered specifically to work with EDM technology. Mitsubishi engineers are constantly delivering ways to increase efficiencies and boost productivity. The machine's speed is ideal for reducing production times attached to roughing and bulk material removal before finishing on EDM. For example, a time study showed a 28% time savings on materials roughed with Waterjet versus an EDM machine.
The Waterjet series is available in three different models to best fit every shop's needs. These include the 2-3 axis Classica, 4-axis Suprema, and 5-axis Evolution.
The machines feature stainless steel tanks for easier maintenance and cleaner cutting conditions. A solid base construction and custom-made table for accepting tooling systems allows Waterjet and EDM to easily work together.
The Waterjet line is powered by Mitsubishi Electric, giving it more programming capabilities than other waterjet manufacturers. The Mitsubishi 700 Series Control provides unprecedented productivity and operating comfort. Dedicated Nano control helps achieve high-precision machining. The unit is controlled on a 15-inch water-proof screen, with improved graphics and NC design to simplify operation.
The 2-3 axis Classica features 2D CAD-CAM software with nesting capabilities, and accuracy and repeatability of ± 0.004".
The 4-axis Suprema's software features (ITC) Intelligent Tapering Control, which correct tapering of the cut automatically. The CNC tilts the high-pressure water jet ±2 degrees which allows for increased cutting speeds in a contour. The ITC system can achieve ±0.001" wall straightness in half inch thick steel.
The Exclusive 5-axis Evolution 3D System uses a self-positioning rotation point device on the material to automatically maintain a constant distance from the nozzle to the workpiece. This protects the nozzle through a working range from flat work to a contoured interpolation of ±69°.
