Overview

The AgieCharmilles CUT 2000 OilTech is a wire EDM machine that runs in hydrocarbon oil rather than water. It is not in GF Machining Solutions' current lineup and should be treated as an older model. The listed figures give 350 x 250 x 256 mm of X, Y and Z travel, U and V taper axes of ±70 mm, and a best surface roughness of Ra 0.05 µm.

The oil dielectric is what defines the machine. Oil-based wire cutting is chosen where the finest finish and the condition of the cut surface matter more than cutting speed: carbide punches and dies, fine blanking tools and small precision parts. The listed wire range supports that work, 0.10 to 0.30 mm as standard and 0.05 to 0.07 mm as an option for fine detail and small inside radii. The generator is listed as the Intelligent Power Generator (IPG), run from the AC CUT HMI.

The workpiece can be larger than the travels suggest. The listed maximum is 750 x 550 x 250 mm and 200 kg, so a die plate can overhang the cutting area as long as the contour lies within the 350 x 250 mm stroke. Taper cutting is listed at ±30° over a height of 100 mm, and the wire spool can weigh up to 25 kg.

For a machine of similar stroke, the AgieCharmilles CUT E 350 has 350 x 250 x 250 mm of travel. Before buying a used OilTech machine, check the condition of the oil system and filters, and allow for the handling and fire-safety measures an oil dielectric requires.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Hydrocarbon oil dielectric with a listed best surface roughness of Ra 0.05 µm
Wire range of 0.10 to 0.30 mm, with 0.05 to 0.07 mm as an option for fine detail
Workpieces up to 750 x 550 x 250 mm and 200 kg on a 350 x 250 x 256 mm stroke
Taper cutting of ±30° over a height of 100 mm, with ±70 mm U and V travel
25 kg wire spool capacity for long unattended cuts

Limitations

Not in GF Machining Solutions' current lineup; parts and generator service need checking
Cutting area is limited to 350 x 250 mm in X and Y
The fine 0.05 to 0.07 mm wire range is an option, not standard
An oil dielectric brings handling, filtration and fire-safety requirements that a water machine does not

Best For

Carbide punches and dies that need a fine surface Fine blanking and stamping tools with small inside radii Precision parts cut with 0.05 to 0.07 mm wire Tapered die openings up to ±30°

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Why would I choose an oil-dielectric wire EDM like the CUT 2000 OilTech?

Oil is chosen for fine finishing and for materials where the cut surface condition matters, such as carbide tooling. The listed best roughness is Ra 0.05 µm. The trade-off is the extra handling, filtration and fire-safety care an oil system needs.

02 How large a workpiece fits the CUT 2000 OilTech?

The listed maximum workpiece is 750 x 550 x 250 mm and 200 kg. The wire can only cut within the 350 x 250 x 256 mm travels, so the contour has to fall inside that area even when the plate is larger.

03 Which wire sizes does it use?

0.10 to 0.30 mm as listed standard, and 0.05 to 0.07 mm as an option. Spools up to 25 kg can be loaded. On a used machine, check whether the fine-wire option is actually fitted.

04 Is the CUT 2000 OilTech still available new?

It does not appear in GF Machining Solutions' current lineup and is likely an older model. Confirm generator and control support, and the state of the oil filtration system, with the seller or GF before buying.
