With approximately 45,000 machine tools installed around the world, Charmilles is the leader of the world market in the field of EDM. GE Fanuc/Fanuc drives and CNC controls are used in EDM machines for milling operations of matrices, such as by wire cutting machines.
Charmilles and Fanuc GE began working together in 1991, a relationship of mutual trust and an extremely successful collaboration to develop over the years. During these 15 years, GE Fanuc has convinced the manufacturer of machine tools with the reliability of its products, as well as the development of specific control functions. For this reason, Charmilles has been gradually replacing their own solutions of systems of control of GE Fanuc CNC control systems. And, thus, reduce onsiderablemente the costs of development and maintenance of the technology of control system and concentrate exclusively on the development of generators of sparks and the development of a user-friendly interface. Today virtually all types of machines are equipped with CNC and GE Fanuc drive products.
Testimony of this mutual satisfaction is the control system of CNC 5.555 number supplied by GE Fanuc to Charmilles. Much of the success of this productive relationship is due to the fundamental characteristics of both partners: GE Fanuc, for example, is world renowned for the extraordinary reliability of their systems of control.
