Machine Comparison
GF AgieCharmilles CUT E 350 vs GF AgieCharmilles CUT E 600
GF Machining Solutions vs GF Machining Solutions · Wire EDM
Summary
The GF AgieCharmilles CUT E 350 and GF AgieCharmilles CUT E 600 are two sizes of GF's entry wire EDM line. Both use the ISPG generator and the UNIQUA touchscreen HMI, and both list 3 um positioning accuracy. The verified table separates them on one figure, workpiece load: 400 kg against 1000 kg. They serve different part sizes.
The CUT E 600 is the machine for larger progressive dies, extrusion tooling and stamping components. The CUT E 350 is aimed at small inserts, cavities and small die components, and at shops with limited floor space that are adding their first wire EDM.

Advantages
GF AgieCharmilles CUT E 350
- Sized for small inserts, cavities and die components rather than large plates
- Aimed at compact installations where floor space is limited
GF AgieCharmilles CUT E 600
- 1000 kg workpiece load against 400 kg
- Suited to progressive dies, extrusion tooling and stamping components that outgrow a smaller machine
Verdict
Same generator, same control and the same 3 um accuracy figure, so buy for part size. If the heaviest work stays within 400 kg and the shop is short on space, the GF AgieCharmilles CUT E 350 covers inserts, cavities and small die parts. If the work includes progressive dies, extrusion tooling or stamping components up to 1000 kg, choose the GF AgieCharmilles CUT E 600.
