PARTMASTER 2 & 4 AXIS WIRE EDM - FEATURES

Back

The PartMaster Wire Erosion Module is a specialised programme preparation system for 2 and 4 axis Wire EDM machines.

The PartMaster wire erosion system has to be the easiest ever ! - The geometry is automatically loaded from the annotated PartMaster CAD drawing. Simply fill in the name of the required output machine - program generation is fully automatic.

Automatic generation of multiple cut programs with alternate change of direction. Set stop-short (cut-off) distance so that waste material does not fall and trap wire or to produce multiple cuts on male shapes.

Fully programable wire offset, spark gap and generator settings for each cut

Graphical wire path simulation

Compatible with drawings prepared for previous versions

  • Menu or icon driven
  • 2 axis parallel profiles
  • Corner radii can be set to :- Cyclindrical, Conical and Iso or by specifying the top and bottom radius
  • Tapered profiles. The wire angle can be changed at any point on the profile, or be changed whilst moving between points
  • 4 axis shapes, where you can define the top and bottom contours to be machined, the final shape may be altered by specifying synchronisation points or on a span-by-span basis
  • Graphical verification which can show if the maximum wire angle has been exceeded, or on taper cutting, if the wire "overcuts".
  • Specify operator instructions to be output at any point in the NC programme
  • Customisable post-processor or choose from the range of standards which include:- Agie, Charmilles, Fanuc, Sodick, Mitsubishi, Seibu, Ona and Japax
  • Display of post processed output
