Our best estimate for the Makino Sinker EDM Machines is $80,000 - $1,000,000+. 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-sinker-edm-machine#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
The table names the EDAC1, EDGE2i, EDGE3i, EDNC-6, EDNC-8, EDNC-10, EDNC-15, EDNC-17 and EDNC-20. It summarises them as ranges rather than describing one machine, so use each model's own page for its travels, table, workpiece weight and generator.
Treat them as a rough guide only. They could not be matched to a Makino source, and they do not cover every named model: the EDAC1 has 220 mm (8.66 in) of X travel, below the listed 250 mm (9.8 in) minimum.
Of the nine models named, the EDAC1 is the smallest: a 350 x 250 mm (13.8 in x 9.8 in) table with 220 mm (8.66 in) of X, 180 mm (7.08 in) of Y and 220 mm (8.66 in) of Z.
The table lists the Makino Hyper-i touchscreen control for all named models. The control features Makino describes differ from model to model, so check the individual model page for the functions of the machine you are considering.
