The M50A provides a workpiece envelope of 800 by 650 by 300 mm (in X, Y and Z) supporting a maximum workpiece payload of 800 kg. The machine's notable innovations include:
- A core stitch function that means the de-tagging or parting-off process is no longer necessary
- EL coating, a technology that prevents cobalt from dissolving in water by coating the cutting surface with brass
- The 'Thermal Adjust 24' feature, which maintains the vertical positioning of the wire by correcting the thermal displacement caused by the temperature change between the upper and lower heads
