Built to achieve even higher levels of precision and surface finish

The U32j Wire EDM machine is built to achieve higher levels of precision and surface finish capability over the standard U3 and U3 H.E.A.T. models.  The U32j has the capability to produce surface finishes down to 0.07µmRa (34µinRa) with the Crystal II Circuit, and can optionally operate with wire sizes down to 50µm (0.002”). The machine is ideal for producing high precision plastic injection molds, precision stamping tools, and medical component applications.  Improved positional accuracy is accomplished through higher tolerance alignment specifications during the assembly process, and axis accuracies of 3μm (0.0001”) straightness and 4μm (0.00015”) squareness and parallelism, ensuring reliable long-term sustained precision.

The U32j utilizes a stationary work table configuration that improves accuracy and eliminates the di-electrode weight shifting that occurs with traveling table designs.  A space-savings design minimizes the machine footprint by incorporating the di-electric reservoir into the base casting.  Additional benefits of the integrated reservoir are improved machine accuracy through greater thermal stability, and chilled air is also circulated inside the machine covers around the U/V/Z axis to maintain the entire machine at a constant temperature.
