<strong>Wire</strong> <strong>Eroding</strong> <strong>System</strong><br />
<strong>PA20</strong>
Exceeding <strong>you</strong>r expectations – precisely<br />
Mitsubishi Electric has once again taken a decisive step pushing forward the boundaries of<br />
eroding technology. With a guaranteed precision of ± 2 µm Mitsubishi's <strong>PA20</strong> sets new<br />
standards of performance <strong>to</strong> give <strong>you</strong> technical advantage over <strong>you</strong>r competition.<br />
In conjunction with the newly developed digital fine smoothing genera<strong>to</strong>r, for the finest<br />
surface finish, the <strong>PA20</strong> also offers premium manufacturing quality.<br />
The flexible design of this high precision eroding system enables <strong>you</strong> <strong>to</strong> process a wide range<br />
of workpieces at a very high erosion rate. Furthermore, it can significantly increase <strong>you</strong>r<br />
productivity and machining efficiency.<br />

An intelligent, well thought-out concept<br />
All elements of the machine design have been manufactured from high quality materials<br />
and tested extensively for strength and durability.<br />
The machine structure, which is completely temperature stabilised by means of an<br />
integrated cooling system, guarantees the highest precision over long periods.<br />
This is further supported by direct AC drives, re-circulating ball screw and nut resolution of<br />
0.05 µm. In addition the spindle is positioned exactly in the centre of the load in order <strong>to</strong> ensure<br />
"soft" axis movement. A central oil lubrication system, working tank and sealing system made<br />
of stainless steel and a patented self-cleaning system are only a few of the maintenance<br />
reducing features of the machine.<br />
Thermal encapsulation<br />
A thermally tight encapsulation in conjunction with<br />
active cooling systems, avoids a loss of precision<br />
caused by thermal fluctuation.<br />
Cooler<br />
Filter unit<br />
Cast steel machine design<br />
This classic concept guarantees a long service life<br />
and the solid machine construction easily handles<br />
heavy workpieces.<br />
Direct drive and generously dimensioned spindles<br />
Non-slip clutches, double distance closed loop<br />
measuring systems and intelligent distribution of<br />
dynamic loads ensure long-lasting precision.<br />

AT system for fastest wire<br />
Everything is easier with good ergonomics<br />
The way the <strong>PA20</strong> reduces manual machine activities <strong>to</strong> a minimum will as<strong>to</strong>und <strong>you</strong>. The ergonomic<br />
design concept not only facilitates daily work, it also contributes <strong>to</strong> economic operation.<br />
An example of this is the extraordinary accessibility <strong>to</strong> the working table provided by a generous<br />
swinging hood in conjunction with the au<strong>to</strong>matic vertical sliding door. In addition, the au<strong>to</strong>matic<br />
wire threading system (AT), as well as the maintenance-friendly design of the tank sealing system<br />
also contribute <strong>to</strong> efficient operation.<br />
Further highlights are the optional features for remote control, maintenance and diagnosis<br />
by means of Telecontact and Telecontrol. Last but not least, the <strong>PA20</strong> is “Ready for Au<strong>to</strong>mation”.<br />
Threaded in 10 seconds: the AT <strong>System</strong>.<br />
The combination of a new measuring sensor and<br />
a fast retract function gives <strong>you</strong> the highest<br />
reliability and ultimate speed, even for smallest<br />
starting holes.<br />

64-BIT CNC control<br />
The intelligent control system<br />
The Mitsubishi 64 BIT CNC control system leaves nothing <strong>to</strong> be desired. In spite of its<br />
complex function, it can be operated quickly and intuitively thanks <strong>to</strong> its clear menus and<br />
graphic images. The “Graphic Check” function allows <strong>you</strong> <strong>to</strong> perform a simulation of <strong>you</strong>r<br />
program in 2D or 3D mode, before or during the processing.<br />
The expert system E.S.P.E.R. au<strong>to</strong>matically determines the correct genera<strong>to</strong>r setting from<br />
<strong>you</strong>r data. The “Machining Moni<strong>to</strong>r” shows the current processing status for moni<strong>to</strong>ring<br />
purposes. Furthermore, various evaluation and optimisation programs interactively support<br />
<strong>you</strong> during the determination of the optimal and most economic machine settings.<br />
This means: <strong>you</strong> can work with a workshop oriented control system.<br />
3D graphic function<br />
Reliable graphic program check using the improved<br />
graphic and surface display. The speed of the graphic<br />
program check is faster than conventional systems.<br />
Programming<br />
The Graphic User Interface (GUI) makes the <strong>PA20</strong><br />
easy <strong>to</strong> operate, even for beginners. The operating<br />
and programming screens correspond <strong>to</strong> PC standards.<br />
Expert system E.S.P.E.R.<br />
The “Easy Simple <strong>to</strong> Program by Expert” system, combined<br />
with the 64-BIT CNC control system, complete the au<strong>to</strong>matic<br />

Machining results <strong>to</strong> re-define the concept of quality<br />
The latest genera<strong>to</strong>r technology combined with precise mechanical engineering ensures<br />
ultimate workpiece quality. This opens up processing capabilities <strong>to</strong> support developments<br />
in micro technology, e. g. in the optical and medical industries.<br />
The newly developed fine smoothing genera<strong>to</strong>r allows the complete moni<strong>to</strong>ring of the process<br />
in the spark gap as well as the optimisation of the genera<strong>to</strong>r settings in shortest cycles. This<br />
results in the finest and most homogenous surface structures.<br />
Furthermore, Orbit-Master, SL-Control, and many more process-optimising control functions<br />
ensure the highest amount of reproducible precision.<br />
Digital FS Genera<strong>to</strong>r: The newly developed fine smoothing<br />
genera<strong>to</strong>r allows a surface finish of up <strong>to</strong> 0.1 µm Ra.<br />
It can also be used when applied <strong>to</strong> au<strong>to</strong>mation systems.<br />

Orbit-Master has been developed <strong>to</strong> obtain a uniform gap for the electric discharge, independent from<br />
the corner shape. This function decreases the amount of faults of the radial shape and allows for an<br />
improvement in the overall accuracy of the workpieces.<br />
