Wire annealing
AWT’s annealing process heats the wire between the brake and the lower working head, then chills it with a jet of air and stretches it to reduce its diameter, annealing and extending the wire to a specific length. This produces burr-free thermal cutting and a conically shaped end that is easy to insert through the guides and the workpiece.
Benefits
- Ensure job processing with correct rethreading even under the most difficult conditions
- Automatically cut multiple openings in die blocks and progressive dies during unattended operation
- Enable smooth automation implementation

UNIQUA is the new GF Machining Solutions human/machine interface (HMI) for wire EDM machines. It represents the pinnacle of more than a century of EDM technology – and the perfect combination of optimal functionality and usability (ergonomics) from our previous HMIs.
Every skill level
UNIQUA is ideal for wire EDM experts and beginners alike. While experts use
its powerful functionalities, beginners can take advantage of its ease-of-use
and short learning curve.
Every approach
UNIQUA works the way you want to work. Control the details of sequential programming with an updated ISO-based functionality or leverage the flexibility of object-oriented programming.
Every user
Work offline or at the machine. UNIQUA ensures compatibility with major CAD/CAM programs and also provides a powerful graphic tool with integrated CAM.
X-Technologies
The X-technologies are a set of cutting technologies perfectly optimized for the CUT X design that condense the all values of the best-ever wire-cutting EDM machine.
Extreme accuracy
The X-technologies are dedicated to obtain ultra-high contour accuracy results thanks to the CUT X minimal distance from guide to work-piece and the revolutionary design of the flushing channels.
Simple
The operator does not need to compromise between accuracy, surface quality or speed. The X-technologies are designed to reach the best results in all 3 features with a unique set of technologies. Simple as that.
The operator just needs to select the wire, the work-piece material, the height, the guiding system (open or closed) and the mono or twin-wire circuit in the UNIQUA HMI. The X-technologies do the rest.
Fast
The X-technologies are also the fastest, ensuring a very high productivity and a short payback of the CUT X machine. And being fast also means being cost-effective sustainable, as the wire consumption is reduced to the minimum.
Sustainability
Discover our innovations that allow our new Wire-Cutting EDM CUT X machine to achieve reductions in daily energy consumption, compared to the previous generation.
