Used Agie Charmilles Edm Machines for Sale 188

European toolrooms standardised on AgieCharmilles for a reason: the generators. Whether the machine is a Robofil 240 from the early 2000s or a recent CUT P 350, the erosion technology databases and surface finish capability, down to mirror finishes on FORM die-sinkers with dedicated generator modes, remain the brand's edge over generalist competition. For mold cavities, fine punches, and medical tooling, that finish capability frequently decides the purchase.

The used range maps cleanly: Robofil (later CUT) series wire machines from compact 240/2020 classes to large-travel versions, Roboform (later FORM) die-sinkers with C-axes and tool changers, and AT/DRILL machines for start holes. GF Machining maintains support across old generations, though spare-part pricing for Swiss machines deserves a line in the budget. Against used Sodick machines, AgieCharmilles typically trades at comparable money with linear-motor Sodicks holding an accuracy-retention argument and the Swiss machines countering on finish technology and installed-base support in Europe.

Buying a used Agie Charmilles edm machines: what to check

On wire machines, test the automatic threading system repeatedly, including submerged threading through a start hole, and inspect guide, contact, and roller wear, since the wire path consumables reveal maintenance discipline. On die-sinkers, check the C-axis and any tool changer, verify quill or ram backlash, and test the generator across roughing and finishing regimes with a sample electrode.

Ask for generator hours rather than power-on hours, review the dielectric and filtration systems for leaks and resin condition, and confirm the control generation with software backups transferring. Request a test cut and measure finish against specification, the definitive check on any used EDM. Verify generator hours separately from machine hours where the control records both, and ask about dielectric system condition since pumps and filters are recurring cost centres. Confirm the control language setting and available documentation before committing.
