Machine Demonstration:

  • The pickup tray has two stacks of parts; new and completed. The Fanuc robot will pickup a new part with the vacuum gripper and transport to the die set fixture on the work table. The clamp on the die set fixture will swing and hold the part, the robot will move out of the machine work area, and the EDM cycle will start. The work tank will raise, oil will fill the work tank, the Z Axis will begin to advance towards the work piece, zero will be set, and the EDM process will begin. When the program is complete then the work tank will lower, the robot will pick up the completed part, tip it inside the work area to drain excess oil from the surface, and place it in the completed stack.
