Makino has introduced the U1310 wire EDM machine. Designed to improve ease of operation, machining speed and accuracy in large workpiece applications, the U1310 delivers versatility and flexibility for a wide range of industries.
"The U1310 provides higher levels of precision. With features like Makino's high-energy applied technology (H.E.A.T.) and an innovative fixed table design, operators can expect faster machining speeds on even the most difficult cutting applications and larger workpieces," said Brian Pfluger, EDM Product Line Manager at Makino.
The U1310 offers X-, Y- and Z-axis travels of 1,310 mm by 1,010 mm by 520 mm, and is optional with a larger full stroke 620 mm Z-axis. The standard machine configuration can accommodate a maximum workpiece size of 2,000 mm by 1,600 mm by 500 mm and maximum workpiece weight of 6,000 kg. Other features of the U1310 include a programmable three-sided drop tank system for increased accessibility during workpiece loading and part set-ups, a fixed table for machining accuracy, and Makino's intuitive Hyper-i control for improved operator efficiency and performance.
The U1310 features a programmable three-sided drop tank system, enabling accessibility and easy set-ups for large workpieces and improving ergonomics for machine maintenance and operation. Operators can lower the work tank for unobstructed access from three sides, and can drop the tank below table level for even more accessibility. Additionally, since the work tank height can be adjusted to match the workpiece, the operator can clearly see the machining condition at all times. To reduce the operation interval for wire spool replacement, the machine is standard with a large capacity wire spool unit that accommodates spool size up to 30 kg.
Equipped with Makino's advanced Hyper-i machine control, the U1310 provides a more intuitive operation experience by utilizing a user-friendly interface similar to that found on tablets and smartphones. A high-definition touchscreen display features pinch, swipe and spread functions and integrates on-board digital manuals, intelligent help functions and an e-Learning training system for easy, efficient operation. The Hyper-i control can also be customized to individual operators and/or for certain shifts, and an optional dual display screen can be configured for use with an optional onboard CAD/CAM system.
The U1310 maintains machining accuracy with a fixed worktable design that provides machine rigidity, even when the table is loaded with a heavy workpiece. "The combination of machine rigidity with machining technology and control software delivers roundness, and operators can expect shape accuracies within 0.3 µm and a best surface finish of 0.3 µm Ra / 2.2 µm Rz," said a company spokesperson. The machine is also capable of operating wire sizes of 0.200, 0.250, and 0.300 mm diameter.
The U1310's dielectric fluid cooling unit, which has been integrated into the base machine casting, keeps the temperature inside the machine at the same level as the dielectric fluid temperature. This provides greater thermal stability, reducing distortion and offering stable high-machining accuracy even during long hours of machining.
The U1310 is available with H.E.A.T. configuration, featuring Makino 's High Energy Applied Technology. This configuration incorporates a combination of flushing enhancements and special generator upgrades designed to increase cutting speeds on the most difficult machining applications. H.E.A.T. technology is designed to provide greater wire EDM machining speed and accuracy in parts featuring poor or difficult flushing conditions. This performance enhancement enables up to 43% faster machining times and up to 33% reduction in wire consumption.
