GF Introduces Top Walking Wire Cutting Machine

In 2014, GF Machining Solutions once again reached a new heights and introduced the new CUT 2000S/3000S wire cutting machine. With its new direct-drive intelligent digitally controlled pulse power supply, CUT2000S and CUT3000S become the fastest in the market. High-end wire cutting machine. The overall machining time of the machine tool is reduced by 30%, and the surface roughness of the cutting steel material can reach Ra 0.08 μm or less.

Processing speed

The high-level discharge power supply of the CUT 2000S/3000S increases the processing speed. Thanks to the direct energy drive module on the intelligent discharge power supply, the processing time of the CUT 2000S/3000S is reduced by more than 30%. The new IPG DPS discharge power supply is equipped with a variety of processing systems that can process very high precision while achieving perfect surface quality and maximum speed.

In a machining comparison experiment, we used the CUT2000 and CUT2000S machines to machine the same punch. The workpiece material was steel, the workpiece height was 57 mm, and the workpiece size was 15 × 15 mm. The CUT2000S was machined with a single cut and a five-finger roughness of Ra 0.2 micron. Compared with the CUT2000 machine tool, the overall machining efficiency increased by 31%.

Threading expert

The new optional threading expert system makes threading under difficult conditions easy. The threading expert system is a retractable device. The driving wire passes from the upper yarn guide to the upper plane of the starting hole. According to the difference of the wire diameter, the wire can be guided to the lower wire guide nozzle through a precise pipe. As a result, the threading success can be achieved from the simplest to the most complicated conditions.

The threading expert's standard configuration includes a nozzle to increase the threading reliability of any wire diameter (less than 0.3 mm diameter) under standard conditions (near the upper plane of the workpiece). There are two types of nozzles available for different wire diameter applications: one is a filament (0.05-0.07mm wire diameter) and the other is a 0.1-0.15mm wire diameter. Both are attached to the upper surface of the workpiece without threading through the workpiece. In addition, two kinds of nozzles (outside diameters of 0.4 mm and 0.8 mm, respectively) with needle tubes can be used for cases where threading through the workpiece to the lower nozzle is required. The length of the needle-shaped tube is 30mm, and the thread diameter for threading can be up to 0.25mm.

Easy automatic wire exchange

The automatic double wire switching function (AWC) for the CUT2000S and CUT3000S machines is well known and proven. The groundbreaking automatic double-wire switch module of GF Machining Solutions is still unique in the field of wire-cutting machine tools. The AWC module opens up new possibilities for more flexibility and process control because it can be processed with different wire diameters and different wire materials. For example, roughing can use zinc coated wire or large diameter wire to improve processing efficiency, and then automatically switch to standard wire diameter for finishing to reduce running costs.

When workpieces require the use of filaments (0.1 mm or finer wire diameters), the efficiency increase is particularly noticeable. AWC allows users to push performance to the limits that have never been reached before. Filaments can now process high workpieces. For example: 80mm high punch can be processed with 0.1mm wire diameter, while rough processing is processed with thick wire, the result is greater energy and faster speed.

Advanced online measuring unit for easier measurement

The optional advanced online measurement unit IVU system brings micron-scale machining to a new level and ensures 100% reliable machining results. Based on an optical measuring system, the direct online machine tool visualizes the measurement and automates the measurement cycle with an integrated CCD camera autofocus. With the advanced IWU module, you can ensure the best contour accuracy that is consistent with the theoretical contour DXF file.

The advanced online measurement function redefines the process control of high-precision mold processing. First of all, there is no need to disassemble the workpiece to the outside of the machine for measurement, thus avoiding the positioning error caused by the secondary mounting. What is even more amazing is that the machine tool can automatically generate a correction program to correct the local error based on the results of online measurement. The advanced on-line measurement function also redefines the process control for high-precision part machining; first, there is no need to make complex fixtures for positioning and secondary dimension correction; more importantly, the positioning of complex parts is very simple and reliable.

Highest precision, perfect result
The CUT2000S and CUT3000S are developed on the basis of the well-known CUT2000 and CUT3000 machine tools, with the same high precision and predictable perfect results. The smallest wire diameter can be up to 0.05 mm for micro part machining. The new series of machines is also equipped with the VISION 5 control system, which is powerful and convenient for the arrangement and management of a series of unmanned workpieces. Moreover, the 3D setting probe system greatly increases the setting speed.
