It was one of the great news with which we went last September to the EMO Fair in Hannover (Germany), the most important machine-tool meeting in the world. This is the latest range of die-sink EDM that we have manufactured in ONA, the QX Neo, an evolution of QX featuring changes mainly in the numerical control and the HMI.

The die-sink EDM machine QX Neo enables a 3D view of the entire machining process. In addition to showing the part and letting the user manipulate it easily thanks to its tactile technology, the equipment includes a control that has never seen before in die-sink EDM, which makes it possible to view the part to be eroded on the screen, as well as the electrodes and their travels. As a result, it is possible to view the complete EDM process, select electrodes and even modify machining sequences quickly and easily with a simple touch before running the programme.

Definitely, the new range improves the control of the equipment and its usability through the optimisation of the Human-Machine Interface (HMI), drastically reducing the possibility of programming errors. The new touch interface has very intuitive menus, and it is visually more user-friendly.
