Dear Forum,

I have been able to put the generator to work, however when I tried to run the first program it seems to me that it is trying to run by the machine does not move at all. It is still giving me the error of can not communicate between the Agiematic CF and Agiepuls? Can somebody help me with this problem? What are the step to put this wire EDM to cut?

Thanks!

Dear Forum,

This is an update to the current situation with the AgieCut 120. We have been able to fix a few problems with the WEDM such as the X Axis Switch was not working properly, and the M3 Motor to pump water into the work tank did not work at all. However we have replaced these defective parts and now they are working properly. The manual says that I need to first home the axis Z, U+V, X+Y axis to begin work.

The machine does this perfectly it also aligns the wire and threads it well into the machine nozzles. However when I try to EDM manually to start cutting my first part to be machine I follow the instruction to press the manual key -> enter key -> start key (green bottom).

The Machine start filling up the tank with water up to the level it should be however when the machine is trying to start the Generator it gives me an error saying: Message 511: Agiepuls MMD does not Start! I wanted to see if anyone in this forum have any ideas why the machine gives me this error. I have follow the textbook manual as far as I can go and understand. Please any help that anyone could provide will be appreciated. Thank you very much and GOD Bless!

Thanks!

Dear Forum,

This is an update to the wire edm machine AgieCut 120, in this update I am happy to inform our Wire EDM machine is up and running cutting aluminum metal type of mirror finish. The last diagnostics we had trouble making the Generator to run because of the relays being defective. At first it seems that our main board where the relays are was not receiving enough voltage into the board.

However last week on Sunday the machine circuit breaker of the main switch of the machine broke down or got defective and was not turning on the machine because the voltage was not being distributed. We have to buy a new circuit breaker for the machine which I found a cheap one on ebay thank GOD for it because I have contacted a few places for this particular breaker not specialized for the machine itself because it is a general purpose industrial circuit breaker with the same specifications.

Those other sellers of the circuit breaker was very expensive charging me a lot of money for a simple part of the machine. Never the less after unmounting the defective circuit breaker we started diagnosing why the last defective circuit breaker and we saw the undervoltage 24v dc tripping breaker in the back of the circuit breaker where cables 51 and 52 are connected to was defective as well.

The simple soluction for now is to replaced this device however for a quick soluction we did not mounted into the new circuit breaker the undervoltage tripping device. We power on the machine and it was operational. Later on I checked and plug in the relays to their respective locations and fire up the generator and the generator started working cutting our first machine part.

Now I need to learn how to program our future jobs in this machine we have the manual of the machine where it teaches us to learn G Code to create the .GEO file; later on to learn to create and understand the technology .TED file and .JOB file. The G Code seems to be easy to learn how to master type of language never the less I am a beginner since I am a software programmer for C and C++ first time learning G Code I think this is going to be fun. Thank you very much for all your help and support and I hope you (forum) could comment. Thank you!
