Sinker & wire machines

The Mitsubishi SG12 sinker EDM’s artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies combine to provide insight into and control over productivity, efficiency, uptime, maintenance, and more. 

The SG12 sinker comes with MC Machinery’s Remote360 cloud-based machine monitoring system, which provides real-time expert remote diagnostics along with the seamless measurement of and access to valuable data that can provide the insight necessary to improve productivity, efficiency, and profitability. This combination of AI and remote monitoring can improve machine productivity by 30% and cut machining time in half while reducing waste and electrode wear.

The MV2400-R Mitsubishi wire EDM is the perfect solution for applications requiring ±0.0001" tolerance, also featuring a larger tank capacity and low operational costs. The MV-R series features improvements in machine construction, auto- threading, internal machine communication, and power supply technology. It also includes the highly reliable non-contact cylindrical drive system on the X-, Y-, U-, and V-axis drives.
