The U1310 machine features a  programmable 3-Sided Drop Tank design that lowers below the work table height.  This provides superb unobstructed access for work piece loading/unloading, makes machine maintenance and operation easier, and simplifies integration for automation.  The di-electric reservoir has been integrated into the base casting of the machine, improving machine thermal stability for long-term reliable precision.  The space-savings design of the integrated di-electric reservoir also significantly reduce the machine footprint, and the U1310 installation space requirements are roughly 30% smaller than competitive sized machines!   
  
Operational flexibility and user-friendliness are further enhanced with the Hyper-i control system, which provides the same efficient and intuitive interface for Wire and RAM EDM machines.  This represents a paradigm shift in capability, as the Hyper i control has been developed to provide many practical and helpful productivity boosting functions that empower the operator with intelligent tools at their fingertips.  The Hyper i interface makes use of familiar touch Pinch/Swipe/Drag operations similar to smartphones and tablets, and operation follows a straightforward 3-Step process of Program/Setup/Run.  The large 24” class HD touch-screen display provides a commanding view for the operator, and the integrated onboard electronic manuals, instructional training videos, advanced E-Tech Doctor help function, and standard full-function advanced Handbox provide unparalleled convenience to promote to most efficient and productive operation.
