MAKINO UPV-3 WIRE EDM MACHINE

The Makino UPV-3 Wire EDM machine is an ultra-high-precision wire electrical discharge machining system designed for the most demanding applications requiring exceptional accuracy and surface finish. Built on the proven Uj-Series platform, the UPV-3 features a stationary table design and is constructed to even stricter tolerances than its predecessors, ensuring repeatable precision regardless of workpiece size or weight. The machine utilizes an oil-based dielectric system, which enables surface finishes as fine as 0.02 µmRa (1 µinRa), making it ideal for ultra-precision tasks such as precision stamping, fine-blanking components, and cutting tool insert manufacturing. The UPV-3 is equipped with a CNC control system, providing advanced programming and operational capabilities for efficient and reliable machining. Axis travels are 14.5 inches (370 mm) on the X-axis, 10.6 inches (270 mm) on the Y-axis, and 3.9 inches (100 mm) on the Z-axis, allowing for versatile part handling within its work envelope. The machine can accommodate workpieces up to 780 mm in length, 590 mm in width, and 100 mm in height, with a maximum weight capacity of 350 kg. Standard safety features include an integrated fire suppression system for secure, extended unattended operation. Optional equipment such as an integrated 3D setup probe and rotary table further enhance its capability for complex setups. The UPV-3 also features the Hyper-i control with an advanced Handbox, on-board electronic manuals, E-Tech Doctor function, and video training tutorials, empowering operators with comprehensive support for optimal productivity.
