Compact Agietron Advance Die Sinker Demonstrates "Entry Level" Automation
Agie Ltd. has introduced the Agietron
Advance 4 EDM die sinker. It contains a high-capacity stationary table that can
be crane loaded with large workpieces that weigh up to 2,000 lbs (910 kg). In
addition, the 15-station integrated tool changer has an individual electrode
weight capacity of 48 lbs (22 kg), providing long runs of automated production.
"The Advance is a 'Plug & Play' EDM die sinker. Upon delivery, all that is required is that the unit be leveled and connected to electrical and air supplies. Start up and production is achieved within an hour. The Agietron Advance is also highly accurate," a spokesperson commented. Starting with its weight of more than 10,000 lbs, rigid gantry construction, a high-resolution servo (1/8 micron; 0.000005"), and precision ground ball screws, the system provides surface finishes down to 0.2 µm Ra.
Another price/performance benefit of this productive workhorse is its compact size. With a footprint of 81" x 71" x 105" (2050mm x 1800mm x 2670mm), the Advance 4 occupies a compact space.
