Makino Wire EDM Machines

Makino is a leader in the development of wire EDM technologies that significantly enhance the wire EDM process and product. Our WireWIZARD™ technologies improve finishes and can even eliminate bellies and witness lines. Our PVG™ Process Control Technology and Quick Connect™ auto-threading technologies all help manage an extremely low-maintenance, superior-quality wire EDM machine.

Our wire EDM machines are the leaders in the field.

The programmable auto-threading SP43 machine is an extremely fast wire-cutting machine, able to hold tolerances of ±5 microns in many diverse applications, from tall workpieces to precision small holes.

The SP64 wire EDM machine provides high-performance and tight-tolerance part production. Ideal for the injection mold, stamping die, die-cast die, and general machining markets, the SP64 is a solid workhorse with the ability to handle large workloads.

A part of Makino’s award-winning U-Series of wire EDM machines, the U86 features advanced generator technology for significantly faster cycle times while achieving superior surface finishes and workpiece accuracy. It can slash cycle time by 50 percent.

The world’s only conventional horizontal wire EDM machine, the ultra-high accuracy UPJ-2 automatically threads and machines with wire as small as 0.00078 inches (0.02 mm) in diameter. The UPJ-2 is ideal for micromachining applications, such as gears for micro-miniature molds, fiber optics, inkjet nozzles, and medical instruments.
