
• Remotely monitor
machining with a
personal computer
• Mail notifications
when an alarm
occurs
Manage die-sinking EDM's 
continuous operation
• Execute continuous schedule operation of
EDMs with job management (manage up to
five EDMs)
• Control ID numbers, as well as monitor the
mounting state of electrodes and the state of
communications with the EDM and electrode/
workpiece changing robot
3D CAD/CAM system
• A 3D model of the product is designed to extract
the sections requiring electrical-discharge
machining because of inaccessibility with milling
tools
• 3D electrode models can be created easily, and
orbit deformation can be handled
Electrode design CAD
• Same screens and operability as Advance EDM
Compatible with 64-bit models (EA Series machining condition search is
also available)
• Import data from CamMagic or EPX compatible CAD/CAM
Create programs for die-sinking EDM with personal computer
• Various machining conditions which match the application can be used
with the shape expert function, thereby supporting even complicated
programs
Machining condition search
• Check machining positions with
3D display
3D data of electrodes and
workpieces from a CAD/CAM can
be used, and simple displays are
also possible even without 3D data
3D check function
• The machining coordinates are automatically
calculated for CAD-use, eliminating the need for
input and reducing mistakes during value inputs
• The inner set-up core alignment measurement
position can be measured
• 3D models can be input with Advance EDM
• Operations can be sequenced to wire, milling and
hole machining CAMs
Die-sinking electrical-discharge CAM
Offline automatic programming system Electrode and workpiece management system
• Import results of electrode measurements made with a coordinates
measuring machine
• Register offset data into a program with ESPERADVANCE PRO
Collaboration with coordinate measuring machine
• Assign ID tags attached to electrodes or workpiece pallets and place
near an ID reader to register numbers in a program
• Electrodes and workpieces are clearly identified by ID tags to prevent
mounting mistakes
ID tag system
• Register a program as a job and run it sequentially with the E.S.P.E.R
SCHEDULER for schedule operation
Job registration

Offline Applications
Utilization of 3D data at machining site
Data batch output function
• Output a batch of 3D data and machining
instructions from the CAD/CAM to the die-
sinking EDM
3D-Advance
• Designer's intentions can be
confirmed correctly and quickly to
prevent input mistakes
