Benefits for Metal Cutting Manufacturers
Solutions from Absolute Machine Tools
AccuteX DS-X CNC EDM Die Sinker Series
Engineered as a moving-column design (with the DS-430X available in a moving-table version), the DS-X Series represents the latest in AI-driven EDM technology. Features such as a parametric AI system, EtherCAT servo network, and a new graphical user interface (GUI) simplify programming and deliver repeatable, high-precision results. With jump speeds up to 5 m/min, enhanced APC and DC arc protection, and ergonomic automation features, the DS-X Series achieves superior efficiency for complex mold and die applications.
AccuteX DS-ZNC CNC EDM Die Sinker Series
Designed for affordability and simplicity, the DS-ZNC Series combines manual X-Y control with an automatic Z-axis for repeatable, precise cavity depths. Ideal for smaller or less complex parts, this hybrid manual/CNC model reduces operator error while maintaining accuracy and reliability. Itโs the perfect entry-level solution for toolrooms and manufacturers transitioning to CNC EDM technology.
AccuteX DS-X-2H CNC Twin-Head EDM Die Sinker Series
For maximum throughput and versatility, the DS-X-2H Series features two fully independent Z-axes, power supplies, and generators, allowing simultaneous or independent machining of two cavities or workpieces. The twin-head design doubles productivity, reduces floor space, and minimizes re-fixturing. Popular in aerospace, medical, and mold manufacturing, the DS-X-2H Series delivers exceptional accuracy and consistency across both headsโboosting ROI and production efficiency.

Features on our DS-X Die Sinker EDMs
NEW DS-X Series EDM Die Sinkers Introduce the Latest in Advanced Smart Technology:
GUi โ Graphical User Interface
Efficiencies are crucial to success, which also applies to people. How we manage to use the fewest resources to create maximum value is key to the AccuteX EDMs GUi Concept. Once an Accutex EDM DS-X series machine is installed, it can be commissioned with minimal time spent on training, even if an operator has little to no experience. Our new Conversational Interface with Icon driven programming and cutting condition selection make the DS-X an excellent tool for high level mold making at any stage, along with managing multiple cavity molds with multiple varying electrodes through roughing and finishing cycles.
EtherCAT Servo System
IEtherCAT is the latest and greatest way to control machine tool drive motion. The integration of EtherCAT communications between all machine electronics allows for better machine monitoring conditions and information sharing. EtherCAT offers exceptional performance, flexibility through multiple connections to servo drives, integrated safety features for network architecture, simple and robust integration, and reduces the cost of hardware and repair. EtherCat also makes integration of automation systems simple and cost effective. When connected to the internet, the Remote Access Applications and Service Tool allows for the support team at Absolute Machine Tools to train and troubleshoot remotely, saving customers time and money.
Parametric AI System
The Accutex EDM DS-X Series was also designed with a parametric Al system, which allows an operator to make changes in real-time. The parametric Al system receives data and feedback from the monitoring process during operations from variables such as instant sparking conditions, machine diagnostics, cutting characteristics, and quality analyzation to optimize maximum efficiency and provide the operator freedom to adjust on the fly.
Jump Speed
The AC Servo Motors on X,Y, and Z have been dramatically improved and redesigned for Jump Up/ Down speeds from 0.7 Meters/Min. to 5.0 Meters/Min. for increased machining efficiency and reduced cycle times. APC (Adaptable Parameter Control) and DC Arc Protection from start to finish have been dramatically enhanced through real-time gap condition monitoring. This capability is invaluable for safe, reliable, untended EDM machining.
Automatic Drop Door and Programmable Oil Levels
Automatic Drop Door and Programmable Oil Leve provides faster filling time and ergonomic operation. When processing medium to large size molds and workpieces, the filling time of the dielectric fluid can take away from what the machines were built for, EDM machining. With the fast fill/ fast draining function combined with the ability to pre-program the oil level in the work tank, operators spend less time waiting.
Windows 1O Operating System
AccuteX EDMs CNC control features Windows 10 Operating System with 21.5โณ touchscreen and other user-friendly features to enhance an operatorโs experience, making their tasks easier to perform. Windows 10 OS is supported by Microsoft and is built for assured Ethernet connectivity and Cloud computing for on-demand availability of CNC resources, data storage, power, and direct active management.
Built for Smart Factory Automation Production Lines
Using all new technologies implemented in the new Accutex EDM DS-X series, these die sinker machines can be easily integrated with existing automatic manufacturing production lines. Once integrated the processing system can analyze inputs and outputs through the application programming interface (API) turning all the existing machines into one working unit. By utilizing the machines API, a single operator is then capable of operating the machines modularly or entirely systematically. Welcome to Industry 5.0!
