NEWGain in time andprecision with HSR = 0.05 mmHS stands for High Speed in all thegenerator’s performance ranges. Thenew Agietron Hyperspark Exact HSmodels in the construction sizes 2and 3 have new generator technologiesand modules at their disposalwhich bring a striking increase inpower when removing, a reduction inwear towards zero and optimum EDMresults with all workpiece materials,regardless of the electrodes’ graphitequality.FasterfinishingWith the expansion of the finishingtechnologies to include patented lowcurrent Hyperspark impulses, thefinishing, that takes up the mosttime, is reduced by 25%.Faster lifting-offmovementsWith greater acceleration and speed,as well as dynamic adaptation to themachining conditions, more EDMspeed is achieved with very low wear.Lowest wearBy means of an optimised generatormodule, pulses are formed thatadapt to the conditions prevailing inthe spark gap, thus strikingly reducingthe electrode wear, even in thecase of workpiece alloys, such asAmcolloy or Moldmax.Higher precisionand speedWith a novel process control, machiningfree of wear, perfect surfacesand highest machining speeds canbe achieved. For this, three new algorithmshave been implemented:- More precision through less wear.GEC. With Gap Energy Control, theenergy of the current pulses in thespark gap is controlled in the shortand medium term. In this way, morecurrent can be applied per contactarea, without overloading the electrode.- Good results with every type ofgraphite. APC. With Adaptive PulseControl, by fading out pulses, you ensurethat electrodes are protectedfrom degeneration and arcs, regardlessof the quality of graphite used.- More quality with less wear. PWC.With Pulse Wear Control, pulse bypulse is analysed and modulated inreal time. In this way, the wear is reducedand, in particular when usingcopper electrodes, flaws and irregularitieson the workpiece surface areavoided.ED die sinkingstandardHyperspark HS

PROVENRa 0.05 µmWith the generator’s SF module, thefinest surface roughnesses are realisedwhen fine finishing.Maximum accuracyof the measuring cyclesWith a new positioning system, thefunctionality of the automatic measuringcycles is increased and dischargecurrents on the probe are prevented.Faster in the caseof special machining jobsWith a vernier adjustable generatormodule, the speed is strikingly increasedwhen machining hard metal,exotic alloys and microforms.Optimum EDM resultsstraight awayWith Tectron, the most comprehensivetechnology database when ED diesinking, no settings must be optimised,because the best combinationsof sequences and parameters are selectedautomatically that lead to therequired objective in an optimummanner.Vernier adjustablecurrents and voltagesBy the vernier adjustment of low currentsand internal voltages, Hypersparkkeeps the wear low, even inthe case of a high removal rate.Algorithmicprocess controlWith perfected algorithms of theHyperspark’s ACC and ACO functions,the EDM process is reliable,even in the case of a higher removalrate.Intensive removal,isogeometric pulsesWith specially formed pulses, Hypersparkstrikingly increases the removalrate, especially in the case of premachinedworkpieces, and reducesthe white coating on the ED-machinedworkpiece.Acceleratedlift-off movementsWith the intelligent dynamics of theHyperspark’s timer function, the EDMspeed is increased and the surfacequality on the workpiece is improved.Predictive planetaryED machiningWith the Hyperspark’s Predictive LearningSystem (PLS), the highest precisionand speed are achieved duringplanetary ED machining.3
