Price estimate
We do not have a price for the CHMER RX1063F that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The CHMER RX1063F is the metre-class wire EDM of the RX series: 1,000 mm (39.4 in) of X travel, 600 mm (23.6 in) of Y and 300 mm (11.8 in) of Z, with a workpiece rating of 3,000 kg (6,614 lb). A plate of 1,430 x 900 x 295 mm (56.3 x 35.4 x 11.6 in) fits the work area.
Those figures put it a full size above the RX853F, which stops at 800 x 500 mm of travel and 2,000 kg (4,409 lb). The tank grows too, to 650 L (172 gal), and CHMER fits four paper filters as standard to match. Machine weight is 6,500 kg (14,330 lb) on a 2,700 x 3,000 mm (106.3 x 118.1 in) footprint, so a fully loaded machine with water and a maximum-weight part comes to about ten tonnes on the floor.
Taper capability is ±21°/140 with the wide-angled nozzle, and U and V travel is 150 x 150 mm (5.9 x 5.9 in). The axes run on AC servo motors with a maximum X Y feed rate of 800 mm/min (31.5 ipm). That is slow for repositioning across a metre of travel, so cycle planning on plates with many scattered openings should allow for it. CHMER lists Auto Wire Threading (AWT) as an option; on work of this size it is hard to do without.
