How much does the Makino EDG30 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a sinker edm (ram edm) in this class — not a quote from Makino. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Makino EDG30 is a small sinker EDM listed with 300 x 220 x 250 mm of X, Y and Z travel over a 450 x 350 mm table. It is not in Makino's current lineup and may be an older model. The listed figures have not been checked against a Makino source, so treat them as a starting point for inspecting a used machine rather than as a specification.
By size it sits close to the current EDGE2i, which has the same 300 mm X and 250 mm Z but 250 mm of Y and a 500 x 350 mm table. For the EDG30 the listed workpiece limits are 400 kg and 200 mm of height. The listed machine weight is 3,200 kg, a number for the rigger and for the floor under it.
The generator row reads MGH generator, 72A peak current, and the control row reads Makino Hyper-i. A surface finish of Ra 0.1 µm is also listed, described as mirror finish capable. None of this could be confirmed, so read the control and generator plates on the machine and ask for a sample cut at the finish the job needs before buying on the strength of that figure.
The listing has nothing on rapid traverse, tool changer capacity, electrode weight or tank size. Settle those with the seller, measure the tank, and find out how old the machine is.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Listed travels of 300 x 220 x 250 mm suit small die and mold inserts
- Listed workpiece limit of 400 kg on a 450 x 350 mm table
- Listed generator of 72A peak current, with Ra 0.1 µm quoted as achievable
- Listed with the Makino Hyper-i control
Limitations
- Not in Makino's current lineup, and the listed figures could not be checked against a Makino source
- Workpiece height is limited to 200 mm in the listed figures
- No rapid traverse, tool changer, electrode weight or tank figures are listed
- The listed machine weight of 3,200 kg needs planning for rigging and floor loading

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It is not in Makino's current lineup and may be an older model. The figures on this page could not be matched to a Makino source, so confirm travels, generator and control on the machine itself before relying on them.
02
On the listed figures they are close in size. The EDGE2i has 300 mm of X, 250 mm of Y and 250 mm of Z over a 500 x 350 mm table; the EDG30 is listed with the same X and Z, 220 mm of Y and a 450 x 350 mm table. The EDGE2i is the one Makino currently offers.
03
The listed figures give Ra 0.1 µm and describe the machine as mirror finish capable, from an MGH generator with 72A peak current. Finish depends on electrode material, flushing and settings as well as on the generator, so ask for a test cut before relying on it.
04
The listed limits are 400 kg and 200 mm of workpiece height, on a 450 x 350 mm table with 300 x 220 x 250 mm of travel. No tank size is listed, so measure the tank on the machine if the part is close to those limits.
