Introduction
Extreme Accuracy
The AGIE CHARMILLES CUT X series represents the highest level of performance in wire EDM, combining advanced mechanics and extreme technologies. Designed to achieve iconic profile accuracy of the CUT 1000 on larger pieces, it enables manufacturers to push the limits of precision while maintaining simplicity and speed of operation.
Highlights
Features
Additively manufactured heads deliver maximum rigidity in a compact form. The reduced lower head dimensions enable precise cutting close to intricate workpiece geometries, while optimized flushing channels maintain consistent water pressure throughout the process.
Open and closed guides are designed as cartridges — swappable in minutes without tools. Choose the right guide configuration for each application and benefit from a reduced guide-to-workpiece distance that maximizes wire stability and contour accuracy.
A purpose-built set of cutting technologies optimized for the CUT X platform. The Intelligent Power Generator with Direct Power Supply (IPG-DPS) delivers maximum cutting speed, while the integrated parameter logic eliminates manual trade-offs between accuracy, surface quality, and productivity.
Spark Track, ISPS and iWire (optional) work together to stabilize the wire EDM process, protect against wire breakage and optimize wire consumption, increasing reliability, supporting continuous production and reducing consumable cost.
The Automatic Wire Changer switches seamlessly between two independent wire circuits. Run two identical spools for extended unattended operation, or use different wire diameters — a thicker wire for the main cut, a finer wire for trim passes.
Advanced calibration algorithms maintain geometric accuracy by compensating machine behavior, supporting precise pitch, contour and long-term machining performance.
Integrated sensors and algorithms continuously monitor and predict thermal influences, compensating for axis deformation in real time. The result: positioning accuracy of ±1 micron even with ambient temperature fluctuations of ±2.5 °C.
High pitch accuracy provides precise geometry control, supporting repeatable positioning and tight dimensional results across critical wire EDM applications.
The ultra-precise anti-collision system uses sensor-based protection algorithms to avoid crash downtime and protect high-value production.
A new human-machine interface built on over a century of EDM expertise. UNIQUA supports both ISO-based sequential programming and object-oriented programming, works offline or at the machine, and is compatible with all major CAD/CAM systems.
RFID-equipped wire spools store wire characteristics and traceability data directly on the spool. The CUT X reads this data automatically, improving process consistency, enabling full traceability, and simplifying troubleshooting.
