A new way to cut metals

For more than 30 years, these machines have been widely used in eastern countries for metal cutting and processing.
The basic reason for the widespread use is the low cost of operation.
The simplicity of the machine’s structure results in negligible maintenance costs, low incidence of breakdowns, and a decidedly low machine cost.
The ability to cut even with the smallest models very high thicknesses, up to 500 mm, with an accuracy within 0.015 mm and a lack of “barrel” effect, makes the system “revolutionary” compared to the expensive technology of conventional wire erosion

The following piece, designed and made with E.cut machines by G.E.S., ( https://www.gesingranaggi.com ) perfectly illustrates the great possibilities of the system.
It could have been made with conventional machining by removal, or with any conventional wire erosion, but the cost would have been at least 10 times higher.
With Ecut there are no tools to preset and load.
The ‘tool is the wire that makes a 0.2mm cut. The cutting path is obtained directly from the drawing in DXF format.
But the ‘aspect that makes it “revolutionary” is that this machining was performed in a small company, in which there could hardly have been wire erosion !!!
At G.E.S. in a little over a five-year period 3 Ecut machines have been installed, and the range of machining to their customers has been expanded.

Cutting, or a profiled cut of pipes or profiles is uneconomical with conventional wire erosions.
The problems are :
– Wire breakage due to uneven washing/cooling.
– Size limitation due to tank processing.
– Limitation of bar feed equipment due to tank machining.
– Limited cutting height with “normal” machines.
With the E.cut system these limitations do not exist.
– Processing does not take place in the tank.
– Wire washing/cooling is drop-in.
– Already from the smallest Ecut the cutting height is 500mm, and can be up to 800mm
– The lack of a tank makes it possible to prepare systems for bar feed.

The cut is without burrs, not altering the characteristics of the material.
Pipe fixing is “gentle” and does not cause deformation.

The simplicity of construction makes it possible to prepare large machines with working ranges practically impossible with conventional wire erosion.
Working strokes of up to 2000mm x 1200mm with cutting heights of up to 800mm and workpiece capacities of up to 6000 kg make wire erosion machining possible on large workpieces, with considerable economic advantages.
A modest cost favors its ‘use for machining operations hitherto unimaginable with wire erosion.

E.cut ™ is just Genesis, if it’s not E.cut ™ it’s not the same !

Ask if your E.cut ™ is there.

Ecut YES, other NOT

Periodically E.cut™-like machines appear on the European market.
These are machines from the Chinese market, not directly from the manufacturer, but from dealers or exporters who buy the lower cost, “naked” machines, paint them and give them a brand name. Often after a few years they close, and reopen under another name.
The needs in that market are quite different from those in the European market. Much lower labor costs make expedients to limit operators’ intervention secondary.
Genesi has been distributing the machines of one of the most important manufacturers for almost fifteen years.
Always having the various models available and in operation for demonstrations and tests, it has gained a great deal of experience, both with regard to machining and materials.
Important customers operating in very high-tech sectors, aeronautics, petroleum, additive printing, high-precision mechanics, are witnesses to the quality and reliability of E.cut™ machines.

.
Direct experience has led to modifications and additions , some patented, that make E.cut different from similar machines.
– SlipOn Facilitated thread insertion system on the rollers
– Isotensio, thread tensioning system
– Rotopower, system for processing aluminum
– Wire loading system with preset and adjustable clutch.
These expedients and modifications remedy deficiencies that others do not even notice !
These are expedients that in some cases are carried out and prepared directly at the factory under directions and drawings provided by Genesi.
The direct collaboration between Baoma and Genesi is very effective.

At ‘installation of the machine are loaded:
– Windows 10 PRO operating system in Italian/English,with regular license
– Manual in Italian/English in CHM format ( Windows help), and in PDF format of more than 400 pages, which can be consulted while the machine is working and from any PC, Tablet or Smartphone.
The manual includes the program for dynamic 3D visualization of the most important parts of the machine.
Included in the manual are schematics of the machine’s electronic boards
– Remote assistance and remote control system, ( both from Genesi, and from other company locations )
– Workmanager, a program for loading jobs and recording events in a machine diary. Work orders are remotely importable, and the event journal exportable.
– The graphics program ( Autocad 2005 ), and CNC software can be loaded into any remote PC. Programs can thus be processed in the engineering office, and sent to the machine.

The operating system, and other installed programs place the ‘plant ready and with the requirements of the laws for obtaining the benefits of Industry 4.0.
