MX900 – Surf the Oil Wave

A solid cast provides the best machine bed for the 8-fold supported linear guides. This ensures that your MX900 is not only ultra-precise but will remain so for a decade and beyond…

Greater accuracy with challenging workpieces through thermal decoupling and pre-control.

The temperature management of the MX is based on two pillars. First, external influences are minimized by decoupling the work tank and erosion area from the external environment. Second, the heat generated by pumps, other components, and the erosion process itself is pre-calculated and proactively compensated.

This is crucial because thermodynamic processes take time, and simple adjustments made later are too late for the required precision, leading to a loss of accuracy. The MX900 is simply better at anticipating these challenges.

The Tubular Shaft Motor converts energy directly into motion, without contact, without maintenance and above all without loss of precision – long-term. Combined with the 400% faster fibre-optic-­based control, this superior technology can truly show what it is capable of.

The positioning accuracy of the MX900 is < +/- 1 µm over the entire travel path – there’s a genuine 12-year manufacturer warranty for this on all Mitsubishi Electric EDM systems. An assurance of top-level durability.

Your company’s technological edge has a name: ­Tubular Shaft Motor – from world market leader ­Mitsubishi Electric.

What was it about conventional drive systems that bothered developers at Mitsubishi Electric? The need for lubrication, the friction and frictional heat, power consumption, backlash, the cogging moment and above all the possible wear. Only a non-­contact drive overcomes these drawbacks from the outset and is thus an assurance of better results and enhanced dependability over decades.

The Mitsubishi Electric polymer optical fibres have decisive advantages – not only over conventional copper cables, but also over glass fibres. Not only their total resistance to water, but also their high transmission rates combined with minimal space requirements and maximum flexibility are essential for truly progressive EDM systems. The only thing that you as a user notice is the longer service life and enhanced precision.

You’re surely familiar with the cogging torque ma­n­i­fested by a conventional electric motor. It is precisely this cogging torque that is undesirable, as are variations in torque. The tubular direct drive has neither and is therefore the optimum drive for precision ­applications such as spark erosion.

± 1 µm – maximum dimensional accuracy here ­taking the example of a 40 mm tall component.

Automatic threading in the tiniest start holes, even in difficult applications. The innovative flow analysis for the jet stream takes the effort out of your work.

Maximum precision and durability ensure the best results in the long run – inclusive of maintenance-­friendliness due to a small number of parts and simple design.

The Intelligent AT in the MX900 is designed as standard for wire thicknesses of 0.05–0.20 mm (0.03 mm available as option). The right range for all applications.

The Power Master Control gives the highest level of process stability – whatever the shape being cut. Stepped workpiece shapes, boreholes and other obstacles to a stable cutting process are identified as soon as they appear and the control adopts cutting and flushing parameters for a safe process and superlative accuracy.

On small inner and outer corners and complicated geometries, Corner Master 3 comes to your aid. You merely define your priorities, and optimisation is performed accordingly.

With precise control of the electrical discharge ­position, material is only removed where it needs to be. The patented functions of the Digital AE II improve rough and fine machining and fine finishing – in terms of both precision and machining time.

Convenient with the same user interface in Xpress-CAM for the PC and XEDM. Users find it particularly easy because a shared data source allows seamless preparation on the PC, including technology selection. Changes can also be made directly on the machine with XEDM – saving time.

Produce previously impossible precision with particularly small radii reliably. The artificial intelligence solution developed by Mitsubishi Electric for over half a decade, named MAISART, makes it possible. See for yourself and look forward to ultra-precision.

If time is of the essence or you want the machine to take some of the work off your shoulders. Set-up often takes too long; from now on, you can save this time.

Highly accurate probing cycles on the sides and the corners measure the workpiece precisely. With or without jet stream or even submerged by means of the cutting wire or with the optional 3D touch probe – just as you wish.

Intelligent user guidance takes you to the finish. The electrical discharge machine takes you quickly to your goal.

Comfortable set-up with the manual control box: standard equipment with Mitsubishi Electric. All essential control functions at hand – wherever you need them.

Both are possible. As a user, you decide whether you do set-up classically by hand or the machine automatically defines the position of your workpiece. Using the cutting wire or pick-up coil – the machine takes care of it for you. It only takes the press of a button.

The new nPV Generator succeeds in using the same quantity of energy to machine the material while significantly reducing the energy peaks on the workpiece. This is achieved by applying lower energy to the workpiece at higher frequency.

The various units of the generator have been ­perfectly matched, making it possible to achieve a good removal rate combined with a superlative surface finish.

Simply replace the spool and feed the cutting wire over the feed rollers. Everything ready for work again in 92 seconds.

Makes for smooth running long-term – entirely with­out stoppages, lubrication nipples or cumbersome grease guns. You can now make more productive use of this time.

Replace the power feed contact with just one hand and a small gauge – at speeds like in Formula 1.

Under scrutiny at all times – the status light visible from a distance leaves you in no doubt. LED technology makes the difference.

Users learn skilled operation right at the machine and at specially con­figured CNC workstations. This way you benefit most from a direct transfer of expertise. Training is available at the facilities of Mitsubishi ­Electric in ­Ratingen, Germany. Additionally, training courses are provided by our international partners.

All training participants receive a certificate on ­completing a course.

The varied programme covers everything from basic knowledge through to customised training geared precisely to your employees’ learning needs. In addition, we also hold regular applications workshops – free of charge to our customers – which always deal with current topics in theory and practice.

Our skilled instructors introduce you to our EDM systems in theory and practice. The training facilities are appointed with the latest technology, CNC simulators and ­peripheral equipment.
