SEIBU M35B WIRE EDM MACHINE

Technical Description

The Seibu M35B is a precision wire electrical discharge machine (EDM) engineered for small to medium-sized components requiring high accuracy. Built with mehanite rigid castings, this machine delivers vibration-free cutting to produce consistently precise parts. The system features a 5-axis configuration with X-axis travel of 13.8 inches, Y-axis travel of 9.8 inches, and Z-axis travel of 9 inches, enabling complex geometries and tapered cuts up to 10 degrees (45 degrees optional). Equipped with the FANUC 31iWB CNC control system and a user-friendly 15-inch TFT LCD touchscreen interface, the M35B prioritizes operator accessibility and ease of programming. The machine maintains exceptional pitch cutting accuracy of ±3 microns, making it suitable for demanding precision applications. Wire diameter capability ranges from 0.01 to 0.3mm, accommodating diverse part geometries and finishing requirements. Maximum workpiece dimensions accommodate parts up to 23.6 inches long by 21.7 inches deep by 8.7 inches high, with a maximum weight capacity supporting substantial components. Standard features include automatic wire rethreading and submersible cutting capability, while optional equipment includes auto slug removal and advanced start-hole devices. The M35B is 100% manufactured in Japan in Seibu's ISO-certified facility, reflecting the company's heritage as the creator of the world's first CNC wire EDM in 1972.
