A high performance, 5-axis machining centre, a wire EDM and a die-sinking EDM will reflect the latst in milling and EDM technology at MACH 2008
GF AgieCharmilles, a market-leading EDM and milling machine tool manufacturer, will be showing its very latest EDM and milling machines - with many of the machines making their UK market debuts at the MACH 2008 machine tool exhibition. The new machines include a Mikron High-Performance 5-axis machining centre (HPM 800U) and two EDM machines: the Form 2000, an advanced and sophisticated spark erosion machine, and an AC Cut 20, a high-productivity standard wire machine.

They will be joined by three more GF AgieCharmilles machines, as follows.
* A Mikron HSM 400U high-speed 5-axis machine.
* A FI 640 CC (CleanCut) wire edm machine.
* An EDM Drill 11 (EDM hole-drilling machine).
UK managing director of Agie Charmilles, Steve Sylvester, told manuacturingtalk.com: ‘We’ve put a lot of thought into our machine tool line up at MACH - and believe we’ve got the balance just about right’. He said: ‘Our milling line-up substantiates our market-leader position in 5-axis machine tool manufacture, and reflects the growing market trend towards multi-axis machining’.
Sylvester added: ‘Both High-Speed and High-Performance 5-axis machine tool technologies will be represented by the two Mikron machines being exhibited - and both will feature integrated automation and SMART technology software for increased productivity’.
* EDM - about EDM exhibits, Sylvester said: ‘On the EDM side we’ve made sure that we’ve covered all the bases too.
We have standard and advanced wire and die-sink models on show, and our line-up demonstrates to precision manufacturers (precision toolmakers and component manufacturers), that our range of EDM machines is second to none’.
In addition to (and to complement) the machine tools on show, GF AgieCharmilles will also use its MACH exhibition stand to promote the company’s comprehensive and highly-successful Customer Services Business - Consumables, After-sales services, Technical and Applications support and so on.
Finally, the company’s popular ‘Privilege Club’, a recently launched customer loyalty and incentive programme, will also be promoted from its Stand.
Agie Charmilles at MACH 2008, NEC, Birmirngham, UK, April 21-25, Hall 5, Stand 5410.
