Accuracy and Predictability
SolidWire®
Whether you use your wire EDM machine for small lots of sub-micron precision parts or as a workhorse for production machining, get the most out of your machine tool investment. Dramatically simplify the part-programming process, significantly increase part accuracy, and greatly reduce the length and complexity of your G-code program with ESPRIT.
Main Feature
Complete Machine Control
ESPRIT provides a universal EDM contouring cycle to machine any contoured mold, die, core, cavity, shape or profile. This versatile machining cycle supports any number of straight or tapered rough and skim cuts while optimizing wire cutting paths. Strategies for all styles of EDM machining such as punch, die, multi-cavity parts, and unattended machining are included. Between cuts ESPRIT automatically handles all the necessary wire-cut and wire-thread instructions, and part-handling functions of the machine: flushing, tank fill, and tank drain.

Advanced Tapering
Easily program the complex tapers common to mold components, forming dies, and cutting tools with the advanced conics capability of ESPRIT’s contour cycle. When cutting a radius during tapering, built-in advanced conics allows you to alternate between cylindrical constant radius corners and conical constant taper corners. ESPRIT also provides independent programmable upper and lower radius control. While tapering into sharp corners, ESPRIT offers you the flexibility to maintain sharp corners top and bottom or machine a blended radius on the secondary plane. Organize innovation workshops to cultivate employees’ innovation capabilities.

4-axis Synchronized Machining
Quickly program parts with extremely complex tapers or completely independent freeform shapes, top and bottom, with ESPRIT’s XY (lower), UV (upper) 4-axis contouring cycle. Select any two three-dimensional profiles and the 4-axis cutting process is automatically synchronized; you can add an unlimited number of additional synchronization lines. ESPRIT adds tabs automatically and creates skim cuts for unattended machining. Get 4-axis programming for any geometric shape with any number of elements: 3D, non-planar, UV and XY profiles, and non-planar fixturing.

ONA
For ONA machines ESPRIT provides individual control over all generator parameters including off-time, voltage, and servo, maximizing efficiency in unique machining situations. Divide the cutting process into three zones — land, taper, and glue tab, and for each zone apply up to six cuts — one rough cut with up to five skim cuts.
