Academy videos:
practical knowledge on demand

The shortest route to more success in wire EDM: our precise videos from the fields of application and service. Available at any time – for urgent needs or proactive training. Developed by the experts at Mitsubishi Electric.

  • Short videos (0.5–2.5 minutes) that give you practical tips and show important procedures.
  • Content from the fields of application (handling/programming) and service (maintenance/small checks).
  • For all current Mitsubishi Electric wire EDM machines.

“I need to quickly verify a procedure.”

When time is short before the next setup starts.

Examples: “Changing the wire spool”, “Filter change”.

“I want process reliability before scrap occurs.”

When a part is running but straightness or surface quality are critical.

Examples: “Parallel compensation”, “Automatic process control (Auto-P)”.

Shift change / unmanned: “I want it to keep running.”

When programs are interrupted/resumed or shifts need to be used to the full.

Examples: “Keep Resume”, “Multiple clamping”.

“The machine shows warnings – I want to take precautions.”

When maintenance topics become visible and you want to be on the safe side.

Examples: “Checklist/maintenance schedule”, “Lubrication/greasing”, “Filter mats”.

“Something is running rough – I want to check typical causes.”

When wire travel, conductivity or components show anomalies.

Examples: “Check rollers”, “Clean conductivity sensor”, “Clean/replace diamond guide”.

“I am new to the team and want to supplement my onboarding.”

When knowledge in the team cannot simply be passed on “on the side”.

Examples: “Checklist”, “Filter change”.

Application:

“Keep Resume” function, automatic process control, multiple clamping, filter change, wire chopper

Service:

Working through the checklist, checking rollers, adjusting contact pressure, testing air pressure, repositioning the power feed contacts, cleaning filter mats / float switch / conductivity sensor / diamond guide / seal plate, replacing the deflection roller bearing, greasing.
