Nothing but versatility with these EDM's. Super excited to see what projects come of this partnership.

We have one of those wires from that company. Not the exact same but same idea. Absolutely great machine. It will hold .00003 tolerances all day long.

These machines are absolutely amazing, we have a bunch of the 350's and one of the 550's at the shop I work at. They are absolutely awesome machines to work with.

GF+ is the crème de la crème, what those machines can accomplish is amazing!

Well, thanks for this. I run FANUC Robo Cut EDMs, and we are getting ready to purchase our first +GF+, and this caused me to feel better about switching over!

Great machine! We have had many GF machines over the years, always been pretty good.

Our machine actually came with a trial license on it. We liked it, so we bought it. It would also be cool to see you probe some mystery parts on the Crysta Apex and export the geometry in native charmille and cut it. That’s an invaluable tool for Reverse engineering. 9:45

These are great machines! My favorite EDM to run to date.

That’s sick! That thing is light years ahead of the edm I used to run. I ran a Mitsubishi, FX 10.

Thank you for this video! I used to have an Agie Classic and an Agie Progress at my old job. I used Esprit to program with. I was wondering what you guys are using for the EDM? I also had a Mitsubishi FX 10 and an FX 20. I had my less precise jobs in the older Mitsubishi's and the aerospace jobs in my Agies. I ended up installing aftermarket DI water filtration systems from a company called Ebbco inc. To take the load off the Agies own filtration system. When you are running aluminum non stop like I was, the machine did ok but the Ebbco system filters the water and returns it into the machine saving the WEDM from having to clean so much eroded materials. You're not going to want to clean your water work tank and change filters as much as letting the Ebbco system do it's job. I'm sorry if I over shared. I just love you guys and miss WEDM. Kind regards gentleman

I used to run Agies two 85 models and 1 was the agie classic 2005 model they were a dream to run. The agie classic didn't come with the prob for levelling the job but it did have the option for squaring up the job with the wire. The technology come a long way since 2005 on those machines. They are best wire EDM's by far.

Man I wish I had a nice GF!

YASSSS

4:33 dude on the right is definitely holding a hart. great video.

We have this machine. We got it in February. It is pretty fantastic, but going from their millenium hmi to the uniqua can be confusing for some people. Definitely way faster to set up than out 1987 Sodick or our 2002 charmilles 440cc

Red bull racing just released a video showing their machine shop. Thats the EDM they use

You can cut carbide with that! Please make a video of that!

That thread speed made me giggle with excitement, i run a Cut 20 P and it probably takes longer to thread then half my ops lol.

it's like everyday they get a new machine for the shop

I worked about 6 years with EDM machines from GF and Mitsubishi and my opinion is that Mitsubishi is the better overall package. Both companys making good machines don´t get me wrong but the service from Mitsubishi is in my opinion a lot better than from GF. It was nothing uncommen for me to wait 2-3 days until GF respond to your calls while Mitsubishi calls you back WITH a strategy for your problem in about 0,5-1h. Same if you need someone for a repair on your machines. The longest time we were waiting for someone to show up from GF was over a week and the machine was standing still... And what I love about our Mitsubishi is that you´re able to use 25kg wire rolls (about 60.300m or 197.834 feet). But GF machines are still very good machines, only the service is terrible. I hope you make better experiences in the US :D

GF service is why a lot of companies have replaced their GFs with EDMs from the Japanese companies. You tell a customer that you obsoleted a machine and won't service it, they won't buy another one.

This is a really cool machine! Thinking about the mechanical operation, is it possible to make convex cuts by doing repeated passes with the wires angle shifted? Similarly, is it possible to create curved tapers that start at, say, 30 degrees and end at 60 along the length of the taper? If so, this could make some impossible edm cuts more possible

You should see how quick our agie advance 3 fills 😂 even the repair guys were blown back, so fast that the fill sensors can't keep up and it will overflow if you go too close to the top....

I've been looking at the baxter edm for my hobbyist interest. You are making me jealous with your new GF+.

We have a P 350 at my work and the cutting is so much more stable than their older generator but we have been having some issues with the dielectric system being too sensitive and it cuts the machine off with random errors about the fan very confusing also does not like coated wire as much but absolutely flies on standard brass

Edms are a classic arts of thought. Wire+ space + material + Electricity = spark! Ran the wireEDm and spark both sodick, it were a great experience now missing them sparks! The water will gonna feel the heat, waiting for the game!

Challenge: Make a working flexure with a inhouse use for something. Maybe a microscope fine adjustment.

im working with EDM ( 550 p ) and also ( cut 800 pro ) both of them are amazing

Great machine! What wise is that you mention, something you grave to table to hold the stock you go machine?

The biggest change throughout mfr-ing & products as a whole is the information exchange between mfrs & consumers (B2B in this case). Whereas pre-2010, R&D was completely unconcerned with their consumers-desires, now, one, need only have a popular YT channel to persuade companies to consider ideas. Changes that previously took DECADES due to apathy & arrogance are iterated upon continuously ... sometimes in real-time. It's hard to imagine this contemporary, iterative feedback loop of dev won't massively accelerate tech worldwide over the next decade.

I was a mold maker I'm 67 and became a sinker specialist. Then took a job with AGIE as an application engineer. There I taught myself wire and bought a machine. Was in business from 85 to 2003. Back then max speeds were about 12 Sq inches per hour. I had 3 AGIE and 3 Fanuc machines. What are the cutting speeds now. Haven't run a machine in 15 years I retired early.

just bought a new Fanuc ic400. Looked pretty hard at GF but where they fail is supporting older machines. As such the value of your used machine falls off a cliff at 15 years. Fanuc still supports there first machine. But GF's are awesome units no doubt.

If anyone has ever ran a wire EDM you'd understand that the set up process can be the most extensive part of the op, from spooling your machines to controlling your water with chillers even the door cover can be some serious pains on some old EDM machines. All of these seem really fluid with this allowing for fast setups which gets you ahead on EDM jobs as they often take a long cutting operation.

It depends on whether you want to do it inside or outside. For the outside version, you could simply connect a rotary axis and rotate with insane accuracy and surface finish. This makes it possible, in all conductive materials, to put down the smallest diameters.
