    Please Read This Manual Thoroughly Before Operation

    Thank you for buying our product, and for the chances of being able to offer you our high

    quality wire EDM series machinery and also the best after-sale services.

    In order to maintain machines peak performance and extend its life span as long as possible,

    we sincerely suggest all the operators carefully read this manual for first time operation. Also,

    for your safety, please read the following must-known precautions:

    1. Wire EDM operators should have received relative training from our local

    agency, or directly from CHMER headquarter.

    2.

    CHMER wire EDM can only applied to the machining of several kinds of

    metal work-piece, such as steel, aluminum, tungsten steel, copper and graphite.

    Push emergent-stop before executing any one of following tasks:

    (1). Cleaning or sorting waste wire.

    (2) Replacing resin or paper filter.

    (3) Filling up water tank.

    (4) Opening power cabinet.

    3. Push emergency-stop and turn off rotary switch immediately when any one

    of the following situations occurs.

    (1)

    Hearing of funny noise, or any abnormality occurs during machining.

    (2)

    Unloading any machines power wire (in power cabinet, water tank, orcooling machine.). Please contact our local agency first, or CHMER headquarter for

    this.

    4. To avoid dangerous shock, be sure to stop electricity discharging before

    installing copper wire and work-piece.

    5. Do not touch any part around worktable (upper/lower head, wire and water)

    during machining to prevent from high voltage strike.

    6. Do not modify electrical circuit.

    7. Please take reference to relative chapter in this manual for daily

    maintenance.

    8.

    Please keep this manual closely with the machine.

    Thank you again for purchasing CHMERs product. Please call our Service Department at

    886-4-23500333anytime for technical support and repair.

    It is our honor to be at your service.

    9. Caution

    After every system reboot, SEARCH HOME must be performed before starting

    operation.

    (Please refer to chapter 1 of Quick Start Manual)

    1. Press

    2. Press (SEARCH HOME)

    3. The star mark, * , beside an axis name (*X,*Y,*Z,*U,*V) would disappear

    after machine point is found. If not, move that one axis with direction key and do

    Home Search again.

    1.3.2 VERTICAL ALIGNMENT

    Use Alignment Jig to find out vertical points after parts replacement such as

    upper/lower Head, Diamond Guide or Ceramic Plates. Before executing Vertical

    Alignment, the Alignment Jig has to be well located on work-table and connect its

    -V +Z

    -X -Y -U

    NotePlease turn off ARfunction before SEARCH

    HOME to avoid Alarm 10500.

    2. Press VERT. MOVE

    2. Align either XU or YV at one time

    Select direction2 (-X) or 1 (+Y), press to begin.

    3. When vertical points are found (repeat accuracy within 5), alignment process

    will stop, and the text of UV will change to color gray from red.

    4. Press to reset 5 axes local coordinate value.

    Note.Before executing Vertical Alignment

    (1) Turn off DA/DB Switch (DA DB OP. SW=OFF). Important!!

    (2) Well dry upper head. Any water drip left will worsen alignment accuracy.

    (3) To keep aligning the same axis, select the same direction in 2ND STEP.

    Except for using Alignment Jig, L-Block can be used for manually aligning

    the axis with spark appears on wire:

    1. Locate L-Block on Work-table and well align it with indicator.

    2. Turn (right) off two water knobs to block flush water from upper and lower head.

    1.3.3 SET UP TAPER DATA: DA/DB

    Need to re-setup DA/DB after parts replacement such as upper/lower Head,

    Diamond Guide or Ceramic Plates. Please follow steps listed below

    1.Set up Z axis height

    (1). Put a L-Block (45mm) on the worktable.

    (2). Press a to set Z HEIGHT=250 0. Next, do Z axis

    search home.

    (3). Lower down Z axis slowly to just slightly touch the surface of L-Block.

    Keep 0.2mm gap away from upper nozzle.

    (4). Now, write down current machine coordinate value of Z axis (assume

    H1=46.0)

    (5). Use the equation below to get the tolerance value Z1

    Z1=H2-H1+Z0

    Z1=45.00-46.00+250=1+250=249.00

    (6) Input new Z1in Z HEIGHT and do search home again.

    (8). When Home Search is done, press twice, and lower Z axis down to

    keep a 0.2 mm distance above the 45mm L-Block.

    (9). If on the screen, Z coordinate value is not approximately 45.2 mm, then

    repeat above step (1).~(8).

    2. Setup DA, DB.

    (1)Put L-Block on Work-Table as indicated by figure below.

    (2) Edge Find inX ( please refer to Chapter 4.1, page 32. )

    CHAPTER 5. F.A.Q. & TROUBLE SHOOT

    1.

    Q: Why the message Short when auto cutting appear when start

    machining?

    A: In fact, short could be caused by many reasons. However, in most cases, if

    start hole is not going straight down, the brass wire would be more likely

    touch the work piece somewhere in the start hole, as the following graph

    shows:

    Solution

    Press and, now, on the screen, the voltage meter is supposed to

    show1V~7V. If not, move worktable with speed M orML

    When voltage shows, press

    and wait for voltage to comes up. When the voltage stops

    coming up, press

    Please use weak discharging energy.)

    In addition, other possibilities that causes short could be

    (1). Waste wire is getting out of collection box and touches metal part or ground.

    (2).Too high feed rate, but too weak cutting energy. In this case, either reduce

    feed rate or to increase discharging energy (reduce OFF and AFF, or even

    increase ON and AN) can resolve the problem.

    2. Q: What should I do when wire breakage happens often?

    A: Here are some suggestions for wire breakage:

    (1). First, To check if water Knob is fully opened (turn left to open)? When

    WL=6, water pressure is about 12kgw/cm2and WL=7, water pressure is

    about 15kgw/ cm2. Keep pressure difference between upper/lower head less

    than

    1 kgw/cm2.

    (2)Check if Water Cooler is working normally? Water temperature too high?

    (3). Use weaker discharging energy. (Increase OFF and AFF)

    (4) Check the waste wire collection box. See if the wire is out of the box?

    (5) Clean wire guide and its cooling holes.

    (6) Are upper/lower Flush Nozzles damaged? If yes, replace them.

    (7) Clean Power Contact (Energizer plate) and change contact position.

    TipWhen it is difficult to rethread at wire-break location, move up Z axis up

    and thread through to lower guide by hand when wire threading is done,

    press to return to wire-break location to resume.

    (Note: To avoid wire-break, use weak energy at initial 0.3mm as approach)

    3. Q: How can I know what an ALARM message means?

    A: There is an ALARM message lists in the computer that records all the

    ALARM message and what it means. Check out the list by pressing

    (SYSTEM MESSAGE). Ex: 10400means Data setup

    NOT alloed during machining

    6. QHow do I make Taper Cutting? (Refer N.C. program to Chapter 6.2)

    A: There are two variables, Zand I,are related to the setup of Taper Cutting;

    Z (PROGRAM PLANE)is the base line of taper, and I (THICKNESS)is

    the height of taper, which could be set as + or and will create

    different taper shape. See figure below
