Edge Preparation Machine



ANCA offers EPX-SF, an edge preparation solution.

Armando Manzano, EPX-SF Product Manager, said, "More than just an edge preparation machine, the EPX-SF is a strategic business asset. Its high level of precision will help manufacturers to secure more contracts by meeting the rigorous standards of industries that demand clean and consistent cuts. Its ability to deliver flawless quality in a single pass enhances operational efficiency, eliminating the need for extensive post-processing and ultimately saving costs for businesses."

Key highlights of the EPX-SF:

  • Process up to 1,900 tools in 24 hours with lights-out operation at the push of a button.
  • Standardization minimizes set-up and learning curves, making the process accessible to all operators.
  • Tailored recipes enhance tool IP value, providing a significant selling point for edge preparation.
  • Every product meets quality expectations with results saved, tracked and retrievable directly from the machine.
  • Achieve nano-smooth surfaces (roughness < 100 nm) and micron-honed edges with a controllable K-factor.

The EPX-SF is a future-ready solution, designed with advanced functionalities to meet the evolving needs of manufacturing. Its performance-driven design with 11 axes offers predictable nano-smooth surfaces and micron-honed edges within a minute per tool. The Advanced Cyclic Mode allows users to adjust angles, optimizing chip flow and effectively combatting surface burrs. It utilizes AI-assisted guidance to provide tailored recommendations, enhancing tool geometries and streamlining process efficiency. With Industry 4.0 connectivity, advanced safety features and remote technical assistance, the EPX-SF seamlessly integrates into production lines.
