Wire EDM With Linear-shaft Motor

The AccuteX AL560SA wire EDM features a high-speed linear-shaft motor, which creates no backlash or lost motion, enabling linear and circular interpolation, the company states.

This type of motor also creates no guideway friction, and therefore no wear, helping to ensure maintenance- free operation; no heat transfer; and fast servo and spark control when matched with the AccuteX 64- bit Windows® CE control.

The machine features the company’s automatic wire threader. It has travels of 22 by 14 by 12 in., and can hold a workpiece up to 38 by 22 by 11.5 in. and weighing 1,100 lbs.
