  • This video shows examples of a stable EDM "burn" as well as what a shorted and very unstable EDM "burn" is like. I am using an "RC" power supply in this video but the Pulse type EDM power supply should sound and respond similar to what is shown here.

    As you said ,as you said, hearing with ears, this is a student aged sixty from India. Thank you teacher, are you using igbt for frequency oscillations. Please guide me sir. Alangarampillai Nagarajan from India.

      In this EDM no switch transistor/FETS. In the pulse version design there are Power Mosfets that are switched ON/Off. www.homebuiltedmmachines.com/purchasing-books-and-starter-kits/

      You could do it but it would be a very slow process. EDM is NOT fast and should be used when other machining process will not accomplish the task. Two examples for using EDM would be squaring the corners inside pocket and/or machining extremely hard or difficult to cut metals.

    Hello, I bought a set and assembled it. The automatic maintaining of the distance works but does not work, that is, it goes down and does not go up with a spark. If you switch the movement up and turn the variable resistor so that it does not move, close the power wires, then the top moves

      If it is wired correctly it will function as shown in the video. There are 100 of these EDM build and operating around the world. It Sounds like the motor driver chip has failed for some reason.

    What kind of voltages are involved in doing this? Are they dangerous?
    Edit: Guess I'll find out, I just ordered your first book and a bare PCB! If all goes well with that I'll probably take a crack at building the pulse EDM. Ever think about designing a home built wire EDM?

    I need to help with the development and analysis of a generator for micro-EDM in an internship.
    What kind of generator do you use? And do you have any literature suggestions for me to read up on?
    I am more interested in understanding the inner workings of such generators and the impact of the process parameters on the workpiece. By now I have a basic understanding how burns work and what influences them but I still need to figure out how to find the ideal parameters for a given workpiece without damaging it.

    What is the voltage used? I see 20 volts on the meter?

    • @homebuiltedmmachines9471
      @homebuiltedmmachines9471  24 дні тому +1

      The burn voltage is usually around 25-45 VDC. Open circuit voltage at beginning of the video is 75VDC

      Jaswanth The Longest ON time for the Pulse machine is 200 microseconds the shortest time is about 12 microseconds. I keep the OFF time as short as possible and still maintain a stable arc. The Max OFF time setting is around 50 microseconds.Voltage reading are average and taken with an analog meter. If you really want to know the voltages us and O-scope.

    hi, just wondering. does your machine really work on like 3 volt? or there are a multiplicator factor like x10 (30v)?
    i currently build a EDM drill out of a MOT, arduino.. etc
    people on the net seem to all say around 60 to 80 volt. i ended up with 75.2v on the MOT.

    • @homebuiltedmmachines9471
      @homebuiltedmmachines9471  3 роки тому

      NO it does not work on 3volts, it is X10. Open circuit for this machine is about 75/VDC

      @@homebuiltedmmachines9471 thanks for the reply, well.. that make sense
      but it could have really been ~3 volt. from a document ive read couple of years ago. and i think it came from research from a university or something like that. they were stating that EDM process could go as low as 2v, other documents ive found also sugest voltage as high as 200v.
      i was experiencing alot of heat issue with the MOT, couple of minute IDLE and it was running very hot, put 2 MOT with the primary connected in serie and that solved the problem.
      also went ahead and built 6 coil with voltage like so 5v + center tap 2.3v, 5v, 10v, 20v, 40v, 80v. this will allow me to select voltage from 2.3v to ~160v.
