Hello, Recently, I have been moved to a different area that has some EDM machines. I am more use to working on chip making machines. EDM's are kinda new to me.
I have been out on a couple of trouble calls for no output. I would like to know if there some type of tester that I can use to check the output of the machine. Is there a dummy load that I can substitute an expensive part for? Seems to me that the EDM is outputting a DC pulse. Would a large power resistor work or do I have use something that mimics the part being cut (varying load)? Any information would be appreciated. FanFan
