The MEX15 is built for small and ultra-fine work, with ±1 µm pitch accuracy and wire down to 0.0012 in (0.03 mm). It is sold in a water spec. and an oil spec.; the oil machine runs a petroleum dielectric for the finest surface finishes and the lowest wire wear.
Specifications for the Seibu MEX15 (water spec) are listed below in imperial and metric, both as published by Seibu America. It runs Seibu's Smart NC control with 5 controlled axes, 4 of them simultaneous, and a 0.01 µm least input increment. Seibu machines are sold and supported in Southern California by MASCO.
