CHMER/AMS TECH AW3SL WIRE EDM MACHINES

Technical Description

The CHMER/AMS TECH AW3SL Wire EDM Machine is a high-precision CNC-controlled wire-cutting system engineered for superior accuracy and reliability in demanding manufacturing environments. Featuring a robust linear-motor drive system on the X and Y axes, the AW3SL eliminates traditional ball screws, ensuring zero backlash, minimal vibration, and consistent long-term performance. This advanced drive technology delivers rapid traverse speeds and enhanced positioning accuracy, resulting in exceptional part profile definition and surface finish with fewer skim cuts required. The machine offers an X-axis travel of 14.56 inches, a Y-axis travel of 10.63 inches, and a Z-axis travel of 10.24 inches, accommodating a wide range of workpiece sizes and geometries. With a maximum workpiece capacity of 29.5 x 21.7 x 10.2 inches and a weight limit of 880 lbs, the AW3SL is well-suited for both small and medium-sized components. The system is fully submerged, ensuring stable cutting conditions and improved wire guidance, while the integrated auto-threading function enhances operational efficiency and reduces downtime. The machine’s overall dimensions are 92 x 101 x 82 inches, and it weighs 10,300 lbs, reflecting its heavy-duty construction and stability. Controlled by CHMER’s advanced CNC system, the AW3SL provides precise control over all machining parameters, supporting complex taper cutting up to ±21° and accommodating wire diameters from 0.004 to 0.012 inches. This combination of linear-motor technology, submerged operation, and CNC control makes the AW3SL a top choice for high-accuracy wire EDM applications.
