Simple Solution for Complicated Production



"KAAST Machine Tools offers CNC EDMs for those needing an efficient, reliable way to cut and create the variety of tools their shop may require," said a company spokesperson.

KAAST offers three EDM lines: the W-EDM wire sinker, the S-EDM and the Z-EDM sinker. These high-performance wire electrical discharge machines, complete with water bath, can copy, turn, flip, scale and rotate the working material to create a steady stream of tools/dies.

"Manufactured in Taiwan and distributed throughout the U.S., the W-EDM S CNC series from KAAST offers enhanced surface quality combined with modern cutting technology, helping keep production effective and efficient," said the spokesperson.

Automatic corner control functions provide high geometric accuracy during production, while automatic monitoring of the wire tension helps to ensure that tools are created quickly without sacrificing precision. The 64-bit CNC controller with 2D/3D graphics as well as the 6-axis machining capability allow for machining of complex forms. Production time is saved using the automatic wire threading (AWT) option. The high-quality AWT (copper wire O0.006-0.012" with a waterjet of 1 mm O0.04") is designed to make manufacturing simple and effective.

"The S-EDM series provides effective sink eroding with powerful flushing of the working area," said the spokesperson. "The FC35-quality cast iron machine frame and reinforced worktable enable high-precision machining and heavy workpieces, while the integrated database allows for quick retrieval of all data and cutting parameters for various materials."

This CNC sinker EDM series provides users the opportunity to access and edit technical parameters during the erosion process, as well as program during active use. Most convenient, all S-EDM models are available as ZNC versions, meaning each Z-EDM machine comes with a controlled Z-axis.
