All X-series machines house a two-wire spool that allows automatic switching between the two for, say, larger diameter wire or premium wire for the main cut, followed by smaller wire for finishing. According to GFMS, this results in faster cutting speeds.
Further features include an on-board job management system and the company’s ‘ThreadingExpert’, a retractable device that drives the wire from the upper guide to the start hole. In addition, with an embedded CCD camera linked to a backlight installed on the lower arm of the machine, the integrated vision unit (IVU) Advance display allows pre-setting, in-process measurement and scanning of machined contours.GF Machining Solutions launches high precision CUT 2000 X
High accuracy on machine positioning and pitch is now said to be possible with the AgieCharmilles CUT 2000 X from GF Machining Solutions (GFMS). The CUT 2000 X and CUT 2000 X OilTech deliver pitch accuracy of ±1.5 micron over 340 by 240 mm and form accuracy of ±1.5 micron.
