Accutex DS-X CNC Die Sinker Series
High-Accuracy CNC Die Sinking EDM for Large Workpieces, Deep Cavities, and Precision Mold Geometry
The Accutex DS-X Series is a CNC die sinking EDM platform engineered for accurate, repeatable cavity machining in mold & die, aerospace tooling, energy components, and large precision industrial parts. The series begins with the DS-430X, the only moving-table model in the lineup, and progresses into larger moving-column machines designed to increase rigidity and support heavy workpieces while maintaining high positioning accuracy.
Travel capacities from 400mm to 3000mm in X and up to 1000mm in Y allow the DS-X Series to accommodate oversized mold bases, tall electrodes, and deep 3D cavity machining without compromising stability. These machines maintain predictable burn behavior during long cycles, making them ideal for deep ribs, fine shutoffs, cooling channels, and multi-level cavity structures requiring consistent surface quality and geometry.
Compared with die sinkers from Sodick, Mitsubishi, and GF AgieCharmilles, the DS-X Series delivers a heavier cast structure, larger work envelopes, and improved rigidity at similar or lower investment levels — providing manufacturers with a more stable platform for high-accuracy burning.

Production Line Automation & Integration using Accutex’s Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
Accutex’s Manufacturing Execution System, or MES is the latest in advanced smart technology and AI. MES not only monitors every aspect of the production process including recording and displaying real-time data on just about anything you can think of, but can also manage things such as multi electrodes, workpieces and machines. Data produced during machine monitoring includes utilization rates, status, and machining processes including milling. MES can also manage customized tools and design projects, measurements and counts necessary in mass-production processes and warehouse management.
MES incorporates Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to record and track real-time data for managing tools and program details. For instance, tools tagged with RFID can be inserted in random positions. Using a robot, RFID tags can be scanned and sorted according to scheduled operations and priorities within the program increasing efficiencies and removing potential errors.
Below are simulation pictures of recently installed production lines using Accutex die sinkers and MES:
