The Taper Cutting Mechanism:
It’s driven by two step-motors to realize U and V movement, which can make the 4 axis (X,Y,U,V) simultaneously movement.
Structure of wire frame:
The symmetric structure for the upper and down frame to keep the tension of moly wire within the scope of normal tension. There are same quantity of arrange wire pulley, which make same tension in every point of the moly wire. So no matter thin or thick work piece, the moly wire is not easy to break down. Comparing with “C” Shape structure, which always been used in other factories’ machine. Our structure short the wire travel route to avoid the shock during the running of the wire and make sure the accuracy.
The working table:
The working table with T-shape slots, we supply a standard clamp for free.
The wire winding and traveling system:
Wire winding drum is made of special steel, which is more stable, anti-corrosion. Emerson (U.S.A) converter control the running direction, Which can be used longer time, improve the precision, roughness and reduce the wire broken.
The Machine Body:
Adopt the base of Meehanite cast iron (HT250), the cast of “Kingred” machine is made by the resin-sand technology with the influence of high temperature annealing, which makes the machine body of high load intensity and has ability to resist distortion. And the max loading of the working table is better than other Chinese machines.
Guideway and Ball Screw:
Adopt Steel Linear guideway and precious ball screw from Taiwan.

Reusable molybdenum wire cut EDM machine, it is also named as high speed wire cut EDM machine. The basic principle of wire cut EDM is that a thin metal wire, usually molybdenum wire for reusable electrode wire type wire cut EDM, is fed through the workpiece, flushing with cooling fluid, to get needed shape of workpiece. Wire cut EDM is typically used to cut metal workpieces with thickness range from 2mm to 500, more than 500mm for machine models. It can make punches, tools, dies, molds and other precision parts from hard materials that are difficult to machine with other metal processing equipments. Adopt multi-time cutting technology at the base of high speed wire cut EDM machine, medium speed wire cut EDM machines are widely accepted by the market in past years, comparing with regular high speed wire cut EDM machine, thanks to multi-time cutting technology, surface finish of medium one is much better, could be around 1μm. There is no need grinding process for parts cut by wire cut EDM machine anymore. Kingred’s advanced “C” structure wire cut EDM, high precious linear guideway and ball screw, with multi-time cutting technology, cutting accuracy and surface finish of Mec Tech machine is approaching to Brass wire cut EDM’s much more closer. To some degree, for most of cutting works, Kingred’s wire cut EDM machine is able to replace brass wire cut EDM machine. Molybdenum wire cut EDM machines are widely used in mold king, electrics, precious machinery, auto components, army industry and etc.,
