The documented configuration has 350 x 250 x 300 mm X-Y-Z travel, accepts workpieces up to 500 kg, and uses the ISPG generator with iGAP spark-gap control and the TECFORM expert system for erosion parameters. Options include a 40 A or 80 A generator and four-position linear or 18-position rotary electrode changers.","study_notes":["Machine dimensions (W x D x H): 1900 x 1690 x 2580 mm; weight is specified without dielectric.","Maximum workpiece dimensions: 700 x 460 x 275 mm.","Maximum electrode weight: 10 kg.","Distance between table and chuck: 150 to 450 mm.","Dielectric capacity 410 l; bath level 0 to 325 mm.","Best surface finish RA 0.4 μm; 0.10 μm optional.","ISPG generator standard configuration is 40 A, expandable to 80 A.","Tool changer options: four-position linear or 18-position rotary; left-side automation interface available.","iGAP locates each spark and controls the lateral spark gap to raise erosion speed and reduce electrode wear.","TECFORM expert system sets erosion parameters; graphite for roughing, copper for finishing.","Econowatt reduces energy consumption during idle periods and prepares the machine before production.","SYSTEM 3R automation options include WorkPal 1, WorkPartner 1+, Transformer T3-100 to T3-600 and a 6-axis robot."],"safety_notes":[],"sources":[{"url":"https://www.agiecharmilles.com/die-sinking-edm/form-f-350-450-600-4e99f447bd04cca2","title":"FORM F 350 / 450 / 600","accessed":"2026-10-26"}],"verification":{"status":"source_checked","checked_at":"2026-10-26","values":7,"method":"llm_source_check"},"updated_at":"2026-10-26","type":"hardware","spec":{"category":"cnc_edm","manufacturer":"gf-machining-solutions","controllers":[],"weight_kg":2070,"travel_x_mm":350,"travel_y_mm":250,"travel_z_mm":300,"feedback":"High-resolution glass scales and encoder motors","max_workpiece_weight_kg":500,"joints":[],"protocols":[],"standards":[],"error_codes":[]},"url":"https://machineschema.com/hardware/agie-charmilles-form-f350-450-600","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"}
