A part of Makino’s award-winning U-Series of wire EDM machines, the U86 relies on advanced generator technology for significantly faster cycle times while achieving superior surface finishes and workpiece accuracy. With a rigid, compact design capable of handling large molds and dies within a small machine footprint, the U86 can slash cycle time by 50 percent while achieving high-quality surface finishes of 35mRmax in just three machining passes.
Its sturdy, fixed-bed table brings maximum rigidity while its machining speeds reach up to 350mm2/min. The end result is high-precision molds delivered quickly. The U86 meets and exceeds the demanding tolerances of Wire EDM applications using the K-generator and its unique voltage waveform delivery and monitoring capabilities. High frequency electric pulses can be more efficiently delivered to the workpiece at nanosecond intervals, facilitating faster machining passes—even when removing larger amounts of material. The U86’s servo optimizes speeds and feeds in reaction to the voltage waveforms. This translates into aggressive metal-removal rates, which are achieved without any workpiece distortion.
