New AgieCharmilles EDM Added to MicroGroup’s Manufacturing Platform

MicroGroup continues to invest in its manufacturing capabilities with the recent acquisition of a new AgieCharmilles ActSpark EDM. This high performance system considerably increases MicroGroup’s precision manufacturing capacity, reducing lead times for jobs that require a fast turnaround. Additionally, the advanced digital technology of the new AgieCharmilles is ideal for producing parts with complex geometries that require a high-quality surface finish – and with a high degree of repeatable accuracy.

• • CNC driven, 3 axis capabilities (X, Y, Z) for accurate positioning and efficient manufacturing
  • Micro tolerance capability with precision, burr free machining and cutting
  • System works with any material that conducts electricity, including MicroGroup’s large inventory of tubing, bar, and wire metals

Said William Bergen, President and CEO of MicroGroup, Inc., “To meet our customers’ increasingly stringent quality and cost targets, we continue to invest in state-of-the-art equipment that can deliver best in class tolerances and cycle times. This latest investment is another example of our commitment to helping our customers be successful.”
