How much does the ONA QX4 cost?

Estimated price range

Est.$90,000 - $160,000

Our best estimate for a sinker edm (ram edm) in this class — not a quote from ONA Electroerosion. Configuration moves it a long way.

ONA QX4 — price

Est.$90,000 - $160,000

This is our best estimate for a machine of this type and class, built from published prices of comparable sinker edm (ram edm) and typical dealer pricing. ONA Electroerosion has not published a list price for the ONA QX4 that we can cite. Treat it as a planning number, not a quote.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

The ONA QX4 is a sinker EDM listed with 400 mm (15.7 in) of X, 300 mm (11.8 in) of Y and 350 mm (13.8 in) of Z, a 650 x 450 mm (25.6 x 17.7 in) table and a 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) workpiece limit. Electrodes can weigh up to 100 kg (220 lb).

Installation needs more thought than the travels suggest. The listed dimensions are 2,200 x 2,100 x 2,700 mm (87 x 83 x 106 in), and the 2,700 mm (106 in) height is the figure to check against ceiling, lighting and any crane path. Weight is listed at 4,200 kg (9,259 lb) and the dielectric tank holds approx. 500 L (132 gal), so ask whether the weight includes the fluid and plan for the first fill.

Performance rows are few but clear. Metal removal is listed at 300 mm³/min in graphite roughing, the finish at VDI 10 (Ra 0.4 um) achievable, positioning accuracy at 2 um and repeatability at 1 um. The generator is described as an ONA digital generator with adaptive spark control and the control as an ONA proprietary touchscreen CNC. No peak current is given.

The QX6 is listed with 650 mm (25.6 in) of X, 450 mm (17.7 in) of Y and Z and a 900 x 600 mm (35.4 x 23.6 in) table at 6,500 kg (14,330 lb), so the QX4 is the one to look at when the work fits and floor space is tight. Confirm the listed figures against the machine's manual.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) workpiece and 100 kg (220 lb) electrode limits on a 650 x 450 mm (25.6 x 17.7 in) table
  • Positioning accuracy of 2 um and repeatability of 1 um are listed
  • 350 mm (13.8 in) of Z travel, longer than the 300 mm (11.8 in) of Y
  • 4,200 kg (9,259 lb), against 6,500 kg (14,330 lb) for the QX6

Limitations

  • VDI 10 (Ra 0.4 um) is the finish listed; nothing finer is given
  • 300 mm³/min in graphite roughing is a modest removal rate
  • No peak current figure is listed for the generator
  • 2,700 mm (106 in) overall height can be a problem under low ceilings

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How much space does the ONA QX4 need?

The listed machine dimensions are 2,200 x 2,100 x 2,700 mm (87 x 83 x 106 in) and the weight is 4,200 kg (9,259 lb). The dielectric tank holds approx. 500 L (132 gal). Check the 2,700 mm (106 in) height against the building before anything else.

02 What is the difference between the QX4 and the QX6?

Size. The QX4 is listed with 400 mm (15.7 in) of X, 300 mm (11.8 in) of Y and 350 mm (13.8 in) of Z on a 650 x 450 mm (25.6 x 17.7 in) table. The QX6 is listed with 650 mm (25.6 in) of X, 450 mm (17.7 in) of Y and Z and a 900 x 600 mm (35.4 x 23.6 in) table, and weighs 6,500 kg (14,330 lb) against 4,200 kg (9,259 lb).

03 What accuracy and finish are listed for the QX4?

Positioning accuracy is listed at 2 um and repeatability at 1 um. The finish row gives VDI 10 (Ra 0.4 um) as achievable. Metal removal is listed at 300 mm³/min in graphite roughing, from an ONA digital generator with adaptive spark control.

04 How heavy can the workpiece and electrode be on the QX4?

Up to 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) for the workpiece and 100 kg (220 lb) for the electrode, on a table of 650 x 450 mm (25.6 x 17.7 in). Include fixtures and the electrode holder when adding up either load.
