Smartech Corp. Widens Capacity with Mitsubishi EDM
July 1, 2013
Smartech Corp. has expanded its capability and business with the addition of two new wire EDM machines from Mitsubishi. The job shop, specializing in medical, motor sports, power generation, aerospace and automotive components, acquired a Mitsubishi MD+ Pro III Advance and a MD+ Pro II Advance wire EDM machine.
"These machines were instrumental in allowing me to meet the demands of one particularly large job, cutting the run time for each component by more than 40%," said Michael Chahade, Owner, Smartech. "Now that the job is finished, we find that these EDMs have allowed us to open up time on our existing milling machines and use them more efficiently for other operations. Overall, this has created a much faster machining process, regardless of the component."
The MD+PRO III Advance features the new M700 series control with 15" touch screen. It also includes a non-contact cylindrical drive system on the X and Y axes drives. According to Mitsubishi, the MD+PRO III features improvements in machine construction, auto threading, internal machine communication, power supply technology and operating cost reduction.
The MD+PRO II features a stacked-filter design intended to reduce floor space requirements by 20%. Mitsubishi reported that several features of the MD+PRO II have undergone significant redesign to maximize machine performance and profitability.
