Makino has been the industry leader in low wire consumption technologies, which dramatically reduce the single largest expense in operating a wire EDM machine. Every cutting condition, including sealed and poor flush applications, have been developed and optimized from the ground up for low wire consumption. There are no special settings or “part-time” buttons required to experience this savings; all machining conditions are developed to prove an ideal mix of Speed, Accuracy, Surface Finish, and Low Wire Consumption. The diverse conditions library offers settings for different work piece materials, wire types, and wire sizes, including diverse settings for 0.300mm (0.012”) wire that equal the Accuracy and Surface Finish of 0.250mm (0.010”) wire. The U6 machine redefines the expectations of versatility and user-friendliness with its incorporated practical features and technologies that deliver real-world improvements to productivity.
