Accutex AL Series – Moving Table, Submerged-Type Linear Motor Wire EDM Machines
The Accutex AL Series is a moving table, submerged-type linear motor wire EDM designed for high-performance precision cutting. Unlike other manufacturers that use generic linear motor systems, Accutex designs and builds its own proprietary linear shaft motor in-house, optimizing response, accuracy, and thermal stability specifically for EDM applications. The combination of a heavy-duty, FEA-optimized Meehanite honeycomb casting, custom linear motor drive, and full-submersion cutting environment ensures ultra-smooth motion, zero backlash, and long-term geometric accuracy. Ideal for aerospace, medical, mold & die, and precision tooling industries, the AL Series competes head-to-head with Mitsubishi, Makino, GF/AgieCharmilles, Sodick, and Fanuc, offering world-class precision and performance at an exceptional value.
Key Features
- Proprietary Linear Shaft Motor Drive (X/Y): Accutex’s in-house design delivers maintenance-free motion, zero backlash, and 10 % faster servo response than ball-screw systems.
- Submerged-Type Dielectric System: 280–290-gallon tank with automatic temperature and conductivity control for consistent flushing and dimensional accuracy.
- FEA-Optimized Meehanite Casting: Honeycomb base and ribbed column enhance rigidity and vibration damping.
- Full Closed-Loop Feedback: Fagor 0.000004″ linear glass scales ensure high-resolution positioning and thermal stability.
- Intelligent AWT System: Patent-pending servo-controlled annealing threader with multi-detectors for the world’s fastest break-point re-threading.
- Advanced Power System: Anti-electrolysis AC discharge with MOSFET circuitry, SD Master EPGA technology, and optional MST-II Micro Sparking for fine finishes.
- CNC Control: 64-bit Windows CE platform with conversational interface, built-in manuals, and 17″ color touchscreen.
- Worktable Design: Hardened stainless-steel table accepts standard 3R and Erowa clamping systems for fast setup and repeatability.
- Taper Cutting Capability: ± 45° range (optional wide-angle guides and flush cups).
- Connectivity: Ethernet, RS-232, and USB interfaces for easy program transfer and DNC operation.
