The EDGE2i machine brings an effective combination of high performance and versatility to Sinker EDM operations. The EDGEi-Series machines are configured with many productive technologies to efficiently handle any task. The EDGE2i utilizes the latest SuperSpark4 and IES (Intelligent Expert System) technologies, which provide advanced adaptive power and jump controls to stabilize the EDM machining process while improving accuracy. The machine also features the advanced SuperSurface and SuperEdge generator technologies that produce the best surface finish and metallurgical quality.
The EDGEi-Series machines feature a compact and space-savings design that incorporates the di-electric reservoir into the base casting, which improves thermal stability, and is standard with a di-electric chiller unit. Positional accuracy is improved and maintained with a stationary work table design, and excellent work zone access is provided to the operator with a 4-sided programmable rise and fall work tank. The ATC (Automatic Tool Change) system is integrated into the machine structure and is located underneath the X and Y axes, and provides extended machine operation. The EDGE2i is also configured for safe and reliable unattended operation, and is equipped standard with a Flame Sensor and Fire Suppression system.
The Windows-based Hyper-i control system provides user-friendly machine operation, and utilizes a 21.5” touch screen display. Incorporating the most current interface technologies used by SmartPhones and Tablets, Makino’s Hyper Control makes use of Pinch, Swipe and Spread functions that provide the operator with a simple and natural feel that is comfortable and extremely efficient. The user friendliness of the Hyper Control is further enhanced with the integration of on-board digital manuals, intelligent help functions, and e-Learning training system.
