DESCRIPTION

Available for immediate sale is this Belmont / ASTEC CDH-2AM High-Speed Small-Hole EDM Drilling Machine, commonly referred to as an EDM Hole Popper, EDM Drill, or Start-Hole EDM.

This is a professional industrial small-hole EDM system designed for producing extremely small, deep, and precision holes in electrically conductive materials regardless of material hardness.

The CDH-2AM uses a rotating tubular electrode combined with high-pressure dielectric flushing and controlled electrical discharge machining to rapidly produce small-diameter holes in materials that can be extremely difficult or impossible to drill conventionally.

This machine is particularly well suited for producing start holes for wire EDM, cooling holes, vent holes, ejector-pin holes, turbine and aerospace component holes, mold and die applications, and precision deep-hole work.

The machine is equipped with a Servo II programmable X/Y table positioning system, Mitutoyo 2-axis digital readout, C-axis / rotating electrode system, programmable EDM controls, DC servo Z-axis, precision work table, and integrated power supply.

Factory specifications for the ASTEC CDH-2AM provide a 0.2 mm to 3.0 mm electrode diameter range, approximately .008" to .118", with 200 mm X/Y table travel and 400 mm Z-axis servo feed.

This is a compact but highly capable industrial EDM drilling system ideal for tool rooms, mold shops, die shops, aerospace manufacturers, medical manufacturers, precision machining facilities, and wire EDM departments.

HIGH-SPEED EDM HOLE DRILLING

The CDH-2AM is designed specifically for high-speed EDM drilling of small-diameter holes.

Unlike conventional drilling, the EDM process does not depend upon mechanical cutting action or material hardness.

A rotating tubular electrode is advanced toward the workpiece while electrical discharges remove material. Dielectric fluid is pumped through the electrode to cool the cutting area and evacuate EDM debris from the hole.

This process allows precision holes to be produced in electrically conductive materials including:

• Hardened Tool Steel

• Stainless Steel

• Carbide

• Titanium

• Inconel

• Nickel Alloys

• High-Speed Steel

• Mold Steel

• Die Steel

• Copper Alloys

• Other Electrically Conductive Materials

SERVO II PROGRAMMABLE X/Y TABLE CONTROL

This machine is equipped with a Servo II programmable table control system.

The handheld controller provides powered and programmable positioning of the machine table.

Control functions include:

• X-Axis Control

• Y-Axis Control

• Z Control

• C-Axis Control

• Rapid Positioning

• Manual Mode

• Teach Mode

• Play / Program Mode

• Set Function

• Hold

• Run

• Stop

• Jog

• Adjustable Feed / Speed Control

This system provides substantially greater positioning capability than a basic manually positioned EDM hole drill.

MITUTOYO DIGITAL READOUT

The machine is equipped with a Mitutoyo 2-Axis Digital Readout System.

The DRO provides precision digital indication of:

• X-Axis Position

• Y-Axis Position

Features include:

• Inch / Metric Selection

• Absolute / Incremental Positioning

• Zero / Datum Functions

• Digital Position Display

The Mitutoyo DRO is shown powered and displaying axis position in the photographs.

C-AXIS / ELECTRODE ROTATION SYSTEM

The CDH-2AM incorporates a DC-motor-driven electrode rotation system.

Rotating the tubular electrode during EDM drilling assists with:

• Improved Flushing

• More Consistent Hole Geometry

• Efficient Debris Removal

• Reduced Electrode Instability

• Improved Deep-Hole Performance

• More Consistent EDM Cutting

The machine also incorporates dedicated C-Axis controls.

EDM PROCESS CONTROL

The machine incorporates adjustable EDM process controls including:

• Gap Adjustment

• Servo Speed

• Z-Axis Control

• Automatic Machining Mode

• On-Time Control

• Off-Time Control

• Machining Current Control

• Gap Voltage Monitoring

• Working Current Monitoring

• Programmable Process Functions

• Emergency Stop

The control system allows the operator to optimize EDM parameters for varying electrode sizes, workpiece materials, and hole requirements.

CAPACITOR SELECTION

The machine incorporates selectable machining capacitance for fine-hole EDM applications.

Selectable capacitor values include:

• 0.1 µF

• 0.2 µF

• 0.4 µF

• 1.0 µF

This allows the operator to tailor discharge characteristics to the electrode diameter and desired machining conditions.
