AMSTECH AW6L WIRE EDM MACHINE

Technical Description

The AMSTECH AW6L is a high-precision wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) system engineered for complex precision cutting applications. This CNC-controlled machine features a T-frame design with linear motor drives and glass scale closed-loop feedback, delivering optimal cutting accuracy across an extensive travel range. The work table moves along one axis while the wire operates independently on the opposing axis, both mounted on precision castings for maximum rigidity and repeatability. The machine specifications include X-axis travel of 25.591 inches (650mm), Y-axis travel of 17.717 inches (450mm), and Z-axis travel of 11.811 inches (300mm), accommodating a substantial working envelope for large and complex components. External dimensions measure 2920 x 2995 x 2110mm (W x D x H). The AW6L operates with wire tension ranging from 200-2500 grams-force, supporting wire diameters from 0.1 to 0.3mm with optimal performance at 0.20mm diameter. Wire feed rate reaches 300mm/second, enabling efficient material removal rates. The machine achieves a taper angle capability of ±21° over 140mm width (DA + DB = 15mm), facilitating complex angled cuts and multi-axis positioning. Equipped with 6-axis CNC controls, the AW6L integrates advanced automation for precision finishing and die-making applications. The linear motor drive technology ensures smooth, vibration-free operation while glass scale feedback maintains positional accuracy throughout extended cutting cycles. Weighing approximately 4,600kg, this robust machine provides the stability necessary for demanding production environments requiring micron-level precision and superior surface finish quality.
