Setting EDM Parameters
The following parameters must be set before EDM is done:
A Depth of machining (EDM DEEP)
B Fireproof height (EDM HOME)
C Electrode compensation (EDM.COMP if DEEP COMP is active)
D EDM mode (EDM MODE)
E Relay mode (RELAY MODE)
F Disable/Enable electrode compensation (DEEP.COMP)
A, B, C can be set by pressing
H
in normal display state; D, E, F can
be set in initial system settings, and they are modified rarely. If the DEEP.COM
is set as “0”, electrode compensation is not taken into consideration; if it is set
as “1”, the value of electrode compensation can be set in parameter setting, and
electrode compensation should be taken into consideration during machining.
Example:
EDM depth (EDM DEEP) 156.1mm
Fireproof height (EDM HOME) 3.0mm
Electrode compensation (EDM.COMP) 0.1mm
STEPS:
1. Set EDM COMP as “1” in initial system settings to enable electrode compensation;
2. Return normal display state, and then set display unit is to metric;
3. Input EDM parameters.
