eltee pulsitron edm manualTo start viewing messages,I had never used a EDM machine before so it was going to be a challenge. I had the machine working for a couple weeks but onetime while I was playing around with it doing a test run it suddenly quit cutting and the ram returned to it's home position. There is still current at the electrode but it seems that whatever circuit that controls the ram is not working. Just wondering if anyone is familair with this EDM unit and have any ideas of what circuits I should check. We got a basic wiring schematic with the machine but nothing that gives detailed trouble shooting info or voltages. Any help anyone could give would be appreciated. Thanks, Carl Similar Threads: Eltee Pulsitron Manuals Need Help!- Eltee Pulsitron Eltee Pulsitron EP-30 EDM documentation needed Eltee pulsitron Need schematic for Eltee Pulsitron EDM Believe it or not, I used to work for a company that made the control boards for Eltee. It's been a while, but I may still remember a thing or two. Regards, Scott One thing I forgot to mention is the machine was in the process of doing a cut operation, not sure if that is the correct term to describe what an EDM machine does, but anyways it was working when I started to make some adjustments to the main controller when it quit cutting and the ram returned to it's home position. I was using settings that I had found in the manuals that came with the unit which had been hand written, most likely by the operator of the machine at the company that owned the machine. These settings worked fine for me in the beginning but no longer work. No matter what settings I use the RAM always returns to the Home position after I switch off the edge finding feature of the machine. I had someone I know from another machine shop who knows how to operate a sink EDM machine to come in and have a look and he could not get it to work either. We confirmed that there is voltage between the electrode and ground.http://www.donovaly-ubytovanie-safran.sk/web/userfiles/dell-pe-750-manual.xml

He figured there was something wrong with the Gap control circuit but we have no way to confirm that. I will get those photos asap Scott. Carl I pulled out all the boards again and cleaned the contacts with contact cleaner, wiggled all the relays in their slots, check to make sure all IC's were pushed in properly and double checked all the fuses. Not sure if any of that did the job or I just was not using the right controller settings before but it's alive again. Now if I could just learn how to set it up properly for different jobs. HEHE Carl I'd still love to see pictures of it if you dont' mind. I just want to see if it has the controls that I'm thinking of. Regards, Scott The machine looks familiar, but I'm afraid the controls were made before my time. I remember working on the TR21 which had the EP300 control boards in it. The company was called Andtron, but I don't remember if the name was on the boards or not. I also worked on the VMC-900 which was an add-on control for an orbiting head. Ah, the memories. Thanks, Scott The only bad thing is when I told my boss I got the machine working again he said he already had some work he wanted me to do with it. Not sure what I have gotten myself into now. LOL Carl The contorl panel looks to be solid state and the ram looks tobe hydraulic. The toggle switches on the unit appear to be a capacitor bank. The LED readouts are for Z position and or the Z axis cut depth as well and or control settings. It looks like there is a mic on the ram which would be used to set the Z depth of cut if the LEDs don't. The machine contorls are likely used for control the ram. The 3-R unit is desinged to allow the electrode to index. It looks like the it may also orbit as well. There will be threaded rod with a nut which when it reaches the nut the orbit begins. I hope this helps. If you have any specific qeustions please post detailed (with text pointes) pics and I will try to assess the situation for you further.http://bbox.ru/images/shared/dell-perc-4-sc-manual.xml The main (large) control unit has more adjustments on it but there is a smaller control unit on the machine itself which seems to be more for finer finishing work. There is no digital readout for Z position or depth but instead a dial indicator on the ram head is used along with a micrometer head for setting the depth of cut. I microswitch is used to trigger when the set depth of cut has been reached and stops the cut cycle. There is a DRO system used for the X and Y axises. Carl The elspesed time is a non issue, ignore it for now. The voltage and amparage will corespond to teh electrical conditions in the manual. They should have a table of seetings based on electorde surface area, and the work piece material. The tables should also tell you how to set the switches on teh power setting for amps. The pulse timer has on time and off time. The on time is the time the power is actually applied through the electrode and the off time is the time it is not. This is important as the process is like blasting rocks with lightning. The oil is used to clear out the dubris generated, but you need the off time to allow the chunks to solidify and flush away. This will play into the manual cycle timer which contorl sthe amount of time the electrode is in the cut and how long it is rasied to clear out the cut. The retract works like a plunger (depending on the electrode geometry)to move fluid and metal out of the cut area. This is important to prevent over cut. Over cut is when the finish size is larger than anticipated becasue the loose debris is conducting the power to the workpiece. It behaves as if the electrode were larger. The Servo is used to control the speed and senesitivity of the ram more servo quicker response. Polarity works like a welder and reverse polaity will cut faster but with much higer wear. I think you want electrode negative to cut normally (don't quote me on that it has been a while). As for the ram it sounds like you understand how that works.http://fscl.ru/content/boss-gt-10-owner-s-manual There should be a settign to allow you to bring the electrode to the top of the work piece to set the depth, but I don't see that. It may have to do with the gap sensitivity. You really need the manual or else you are cooked.I have never used tehse guys but they claim to have manuals. I hope this helps. As for the setting you are refering to for setting up the electrode to the top of the work piece. That function is located on the bottom panel of the smaller control unit to the right of the Ram. There are also two other toggles switches. One to select between edge finder and depth finder. This machine really seems to have alot of potential for an older machine. It will be insteresting to see what I can all do with it. Thanks again for your input. Carl I turned down a piece of copper rod to make one just to test with. It's done pretty good. I found a couple small blocks of really dense graphite with the stuff that came with the machine so I made a electrode out of that to try and it worked really well. Better then the copper. Carl There are three main things to know about EDMing. 1. Flushing 2. Flushing 3. Flushing If you do not have a clean gap this machine will throw a DC arc and pit your work piece. Keep the gap clean!! This is an excellent machine for fine detail. I have run two different machines in two different shops. The first one had the analog meters, the second one was just like the one you show. It has been about 20 years since I've actually had my hands on this model. I wanted to buy one when they were in transition (being bought by HURCO, I think back in the late 80's). Boss would not go for it, so we ended up with a Charmilles. Any memories of this? Jim The machine looks familiar, but I'm afraid the controls were made before my time. I remember working on the TR21 which had the EP300 control boards in it. The company was called Andtron, but I don't remember if the name was on the boards or not.https://www.pbb-bestbuy.com/images/95-buick-century-repair-manual.pdf I also worked on the VMC-900 which was an add-on control for an orbiting head. Ah, the memories. Thanks, Scott The machine looks like everything is ready to go. When the start button is pushed for the automatic cycle nothing happens.If you have them and can post them here or email them to me I'll have a look.

The electrical tension is discharged and a spark jumps across. Where it strikes, the.Innumerable such sparks spray. One after the other(never simultaneously) and gradually shape the desired form in the piece of metal, according to the shape of the electrode. Several hundred thousand sparks must fly per second before erosion takes place. EDM(electrical discharge machining) is a machining method primarily used for hard metals or those that would be impossible to machine with traditional techniques. One important limitation. However, is that EDM only works with materials that are electrically conductive. EDM can cut small or odd-shaped angles. Intricate contours or cavities in extremely hard steel and exotic metals such as iconel, hastelloy, kovar, titanium and carbide. Sometimes referred to as spark eroding or spark machining, EDM is a method of removing material by a series of rapidly recurring electric arcing discharges between an electrode(the cutting tool) and the work piece, in the presence of an energetic electric field. The EDM cutting tool is guided along the desired path very close to the work but it doesn't touch the piece. Rapidly occurring consecutive sparks produce a series of micro-craters on the work pie Approximate Total Weight: 3.500 Lbs. We Ship Worldwide- F.O.B. Truck.

The only problem I have is this - sometimes, the DVD player will put itself into standby mode in the middle of a movie. Has happened once each evening so far. I took the DVD player back and replaced it, but the standby mode is still happening. All I can think is that it is caused by: a) bad design, but a google shows only good reviews for this player (daewoo dv900) b) some sort of infrared signal coming from outside my windows c) some signal coming from the amplifier via the digital coaxial cable connection (it is connected to the TV via a SCART for the picture, to the amp via digital coaxial for the sound) any thoughts. Might have to return it and replace with a different make. In c above, is this connection type ok? (using SCART and coaxial)?? thanks peeps The signals should have no effect on each other. Is the DVD unit a player only or a recorder as well? (Sorry if this is mentioned elsewhere in the thread but I'm feeling lazy.) If it's only a player then even a fully connected Scart should have no influence on the operation, in which case I would suggest faulty or some weird setting not right somewhere?

If it's only a player then even a fully connected Scart should have no influence on the operation, in which case I would suggest faulty or some weird setting not right somewhere? And I agree about the weird setting thing. I have looked throughout the system and even unlocked the dvd player so it is multi region, still get the fault - and this is on the replacement. I will probably get a refund from Richer Sounds on Friday and get a new one, different make, from Argos for the same money. (we are only talking a ?35 DVD player) You're a bit of an expert on audio Mr Frog, any thoughts on the system generally?
