How much does the Makino EDNC10 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 EDNC-10 is the third machine of the EDNC sinker EDM series: 1,000 x 600 x 500 mm (39.4 x 23.6 x 19.7 in) of travel, a 1,300 x 950 mm (51.2 in x 37.4 in) table and a 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) workpiece rating. Its Z row is a single figure with nothing in brackets.
The weight rating is the same as on the EDNC-8, which has 800 mm (31.5 in) of X and a 1,100 x 700 mm (43.3 in x 27.6 in) table. What the EDNC-10 adds is area, not load, so it fits large, relatively flat mold plates better than it fits heavier blocks of the same size.
The standard EDNC-10 accepts parts up to 59.1” x 43.3” (1,500mm x 1,100mm), which is the footprint of its 1,500 x 1,100 x 500 mm (59.1 in x 43.3 in x 19.7 in) work tank. The wide-tank version takes 78.7” x 43.3” (2,000mm x 1,100mm), so it grows in one direction only. Both configurations use a three-sided programmable rise-and-fall tank and a stationary worktable, and the dielectric reservoir is integrated into the base casting.
Performance options are listed separately. The HS-Rib high-speed Z-axis enables jump motions up to 20 m/min with 1.5G acceleration, uses core cooling of the ball screw to hold depth control, and in Makino's figures can reduce machining times by up to 60 percent. Optional ATC systems keep the entire stroke usable; the table lists 8 or 16 tools, fewer than the 16 or 32 listed for the EDNC-8.
Generator current is given as 60A ~ 240A, electrodes may weigh up to 100 kg (220 lb) and rapid traverse is 5 m/min (197 in/min). The Hyper-i control uses a large hi-definition touch screen and offers HyperCut and SuperSpark IV, on-board digital manuals and E-Tech Doctor functions.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 1,000 x 600 x 500 mm (39.4 x 23.6 x 19.7 in) of travel over a 1,300 x 950 mm (51.2 in x 37.4 in) table
- Wide-tank version takes parts up to 78.7” x 43.3” (2,000mm x 1,100mm)
- 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) workpiece rating
- HS-Rib option: 20 m/min jumps with a core-cooled ball screw and machining times cut by up to 60 percent
- Three-sided rise-and-fall tank on both configurations, with a stationary worktable
Limitations
- Workpiece rating is 3,000 kg (6,614 lb), no more than on the smaller EDNC-8
- Listed tool capacities are 8 or 16, against 16 or 32 on the EDNC-8
- The ATC and the HS-Rib Z-axis are options
- Generator current is given only as a 60A ~ 240A range

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The standard EDNC-10 accepts parts up to 59.1” x 43.3” (1,500mm x 1,100mm) and the wide-tank version up to 78.7” x 43.3” (2,000mm x 1,100mm). Either way the workpiece rating is 3,000 kg (6,614 lb), and the table is 1,300 x 950 mm (51.2 in x 37.4 in).
02
The EDNC-8 has 800 mm (31.5 in) of X, 500 mm (19.7 in) of Y and a 1,100 x 700 mm (43.3 in x 27.6 in) table, with 16 or 32 tools listed. The EDNC-10 has 1,000 x 600 x 500 mm (39.4 x 23.6 x 19.7 in) of travel and a 1,300 x 950 mm (51.2 in x 37.4 in) table. Both are rated for 3,000 kg (6,614 lb).
03
No, Makino lists it as an option. It enables jump motions up to 20 m/min with 1.5G acceleration and uses core cooling of the ball screw to hold depth control, and Makino says it can reduce machining times by up to 60 percent.
04
The table lists 8 or 16 tools. ATC systems are optional and are designed to leave the whole machine stroke usable, so the changer size belongs on the order. Electrodes can weigh up to 100 kg (220 lb).
