JAPAX LDM-S WIRE EDM MACHINE

The JAPAX LDM-S is a precision wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) system designed for fine detail machining and complex contour cutting applications. This CNC-controlled machine features three-axis servo-driven positioning with X, Y, and Z travel distances of 7.9, 13.8, and 5.9 inches respectively, accommodating workpieces up to 15.7 x 19.7 x 5.9 inches and weighing up to 330 pounds. The system incorporates a 35-ampere power supply unit capable of delivering consistent discharge energy for optimal cutting performance across various material types. The machine operates on 210/220V, 7 kVA, three-phase, 50/60 Hz power supply, making it compatible with standard industrial electrical infrastructure. A distinctive feature is its maximum taper capability of ±8° at 3.9 inches of vertical travel, enabling angled cut profiles for advanced component manufacturing. The JAPAX 4G CNC control system provides conversational programming functionality, allowing operators to input machining parameters intuitively without extensive programming expertise. An integrated dielectric fluid cooling and filtration unit maintains optimal machining conditions by regulating fluid temperature and removing eroded particles, extending tool life and improving surface finish quality. The RS232 communication port enables direct machine interfacing with external computers and production management systems, facilitating data transfer and remote monitoring capabilities. Originally manufactured in 1990, this established platform remains valued for its reliable performance in precision EDM applications requiring fine detail work and tight dimensional tolerances.
