EDM Machine allows automatic threading of wire.

Press Release Summary:




FA-PS EDM machine features 4-axis linear scales and automatic threading of .002-.012 in. dia wire with start holes from .007 in. dia. Digital FS provides finishing circuit for target surface roughness of 3.0 µin. Ra, and AFC2 enables ±3 µm machining accuracy and .00005 in. circularity error. Full automation from rough to finish machining is provided by Power Master control with stepped shape capability, allowing machining of multiple parts with different shapes and thickness.



Original Press Release:



New FA-PS Provides High Accuracy and Fine Finishing



Wood Dale, IL - MC Machinery Systems, Inc. introduces the new Mitsubishi FA-PS Wire EDM, which replaces Mitsubishi's older FA-P series machine. The FA-PS is Mitsubishi's newest high-accuracy, small wire, fine-finishing machine. Like all Mitsubishi EDM machines, the FA-PS is operator-friendly and automation ready.

Standard features of the machine include 4-axis linear scales and automatic threading of a wire size range of .002"-.012" in diameter with start holes from .007" diameter. Digital FS provides ultra fine finishing circuit for target surface roughness of 3.0µ inch Ra. Digital FS allows workpieces to be set up directly on the work table.

AFC2 suppresses disturbances during high-accuracy movement, insuring highly precise positioning and ±3µm machining accuracy. It provides advanced roundness and pitch accuracy for friction control, with a circularity error of .00005".

The machine's CM-S2 provides improved corner accuracy including sharp outer corners during skimming. The high-speed Power Master (PM4) control enables full automation from rough to finish machining. PM4's stepped shape capabilities allow multiple parts with different shapes and thickness to be machined without setting specific electrical conditions.
