MAKINO U6 H.E.A.T. EXTREME WIRE EDM MACHINE

The Makino U6 H.E.A.T. Extreme Wire EDM Machine is an advanced CNC-controlled electrical discharge machining system engineered for high-speed, high-precision wire cutting. Featuring an X-axis travel of 25.6 inches, Y-axis travel of 17.7 inches, and Z-axis travel of 16.5 inches, this machine delivers robust performance for demanding applications. It utilizes Makino’s proprietary H.E.A.T. (High Efficiency Advanced Technology) system, which enables the use of a 0.016” (0.400mm) coated wire to achieve cutting speeds up to twice that of traditional 0.010” brass wire, without increasing wire consumption. The U6 H.E.A.T. Extreme is equipped with a CNC control system for precise, automated operation, ensuring consistent accuracy and repeatability. Its design incorporates a Split-V Wire Guide system, which reduces maintenance and extends guide life, while the robust machining conditions library optimizes speed, accuracy, surface finish, and wire consumption for a wide range of materials and applications. The machine supports wire sizes from 0.100mm to 0.400mm, allowing for versatility in cutting requirements. With a maximum workpiece size of 1000 x 800 x 400 mm and a maximum workpiece weight of 1,500 kg, the U6 H.E.A.T. Extreme is suitable for large and heavy components. The tank size measures 1,070 x 880 mm, providing ample workspace. Additional features include a user-friendly interface, excellent tank access via a pneumatic front door, and advanced flushing and filtration systems for improved productivity and operational efficiency. This machine sets a new benchmark in wire EDM technology, combining speed, precision, and reliability for the most challenging industrial applications.
