Makino in Auburn Hills, MI welcomes you to attend the Advanced Manufacturing and High-Precision Technology Expo. During this two day event on October 12 and 13, we will have seven EDM machines on display among a total of 17 machine tools. These EDMs will represent Makino’s diversity in the field, from the workhorse DUO-Series wire EDMs, to the ultra-precision UPJ2 horizontal WEDM. If its super fine finishes you require, especially in carbide and PCD materials, we will be demonstrating the new UPV-Series WEDMs that operate with oil instead of dielectric water.

Our newest sinker EDM, the EDAF-Series with ArcFree Technology, will be sporting the latest in on-board program generation, Makino Program Generator (MPG). The larger EDAF3 will be outfitted with our extremely precise Fine Hole option for drilling of holes as small as 11 micron, and L:D capabilities of over 100:1. At the pinnacle of accuracy for Makino sinker EDM technology are the EDAC1 and EDFH1. We will have an EDFH1 machine in our controlled environment room. This machine can be used as both a standard sinker and a precision EDM hole drill, just like our EDAF machines with Fine Hole option. The big difference is that the EDFH1 can achieve the finest of finishes and the smallest of details with ease.

It’s going to be one of the premier manufacturing technology events of 2011. If you’re in the Detroit area, stop in and see what Makino has to offer. Register now at www.makino.com/expo.
