Our best estimate for the Makino EDG56 is $350,000 - $480,000. 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-edg56#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
No. It is not in Makino's current lineup and may be an older model, and its figures could not be matched to a Makino source. Use them to shortlist a machine, then confirm travels, table and generator on the machine itself.
The EDNC-6, which Makino currently offers, has 650 mm of X, 450 mm of Y and 350 mm of Z with 500 mm in brackets, over an 800 x 550 mm table. The EDG56 is listed with 600 x 400 x 400 mm of travel and a larger 900 x 600 mm table.
The machine is listed at 9,500 kg. Its listed workpiece limits are 3,000 kg and 350 mm of height, on a 900 x 600 mm table. Plan the foundation and the crane around both numbers before the machine arrives.
The generator row reads MGH generator with 160A peak current, and the listed surface finish is Ra 0.08 µm, described as mirror finish capable. Neither could be confirmed, so ask for a demonstration cut on a material and electrode like those of the job.
