 The Agiecut Progress V Series wire EDMs from GF AgieCharmilles feature a variety of new innovations.
For example, the Progress is now paired with a System 3R Workpal
palletized workpiece changer to form an automated cell. The Workpal
handles up to eight pallets for workpieces up to 12 in. square, feeding
them into the Progress for up to 80 hours of uninterrupted processing.
Other innovations being introduced on V Series wire EDMs are the IPG-V
generator and Agievision 5 control based on the Windows XP platform.
Processing speed, surface finish and accuracy are all improved, along
with user-friendliness of the Agievision control, which provides
enhanced 3D graphics, real time adjustments, and direct-select activity
bars. The Progress system’s eCut generator technology makes it possible
to get surface finishes as good as 0.8 µm Ra with one precision cut-a
process that is completed in half the time required by technologies
that incorporate a main cut and trim cut.
