Our best estimate for the Makino EDAC1 is $80,000 - $130,000. This is an estimate for a sinker edm (ram edm) in this class, not a quote from Makino; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/makino-edac1#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
Makino states that the mechanical alignment of each axis is 2 microns (0.00008") or smaller over the full stroke, and that the machine can produce positional tolerances of ±1 micron (0.00004"). The optional Mi C-axis indexes with ±2 arc seconds of positioning accuracy.
Makino quotes surface finishes down to 1.3 µin Ra (0.25 µm Rz), and a smallest inside corner radius of 5 microns. The generator's peak machining current is 30 amp, so the machine is built for fine finishing rather than heavy roughing.
The table is 350 x 250 mm (13.8 in x 9.8 in) and the work tank 450 x 350 x 200 mm (17.7 in x 13.77 in x 7.87 in). Travels are 220 mm (8.66 in) in X, 180 mm (7.08 in) in Y and 220 mm (8.66 in) in Z. Workpieces can weigh up to 50 kgs (110 lb), electrodes up to 5 kgs (11 lb).
Both have a 350 x 250 mm (13.8 in x 9.8 in) table, 220 mm (8.7 in) of X and 180 mm (7.1 in) of Y. The EDFH-1 has 300 mm (11.8 in) of Z against 220 mm (8.66 in) on the EDAC1. The EDAC1 is the model Makino positions for small electronics and micromachining accuracy.
