Our best estimate for the Makino UX6 is $200,000 - $280,000. This is an estimate for a wire 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-ux6#price; the request is passed to Makino or an authorised dealer.
Both have 650 x 450 x 420 mm (25.6 x 17.7 x 16.5 in) of travel, ±75 mm (±3.0 in) of U and V and a 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) workpiece limit. The UX6 has a 3-Sided table and a listed workpiece height of 420 mm (16.5 in); the UX6i has a 4-Sided table and a listed height of 400 mm (15.8 in).
Up to 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) and 1000 x 800 x 420 mm Tall (39.4 in x 31.5 in x 16.5 in Tall). The tank is 1,070 mm x 880 mm (42.12 in x 34.64 in), so a part at the plan limit leaves little room for clamps; check fixturing before quoting a full-size plate.
0.100mm, 0.150mm, 0.200mm, 0.250mm and 0.300mm. Makino's conditions library includes 0.300 mm (0.012 in) settings and covers different workpiece materials and wire types, with each condition balanced between speed, accuracy, surface finish and low wire consumption.
No. Makino states that every cutting condition, sealed and poor-flush cuts included, is optimised for low wire consumption, with no special settings or buttons. On tall parts cut through up to 420 mm (16.5 in) of material, wire is a large share of running cost, so having it built in counts.
