HEDMA is a hackable homemade EDM[1] machine.

Documentation is in the FabricateEDM[2] repository.


Maskin / Machine

The machine is homemade, using existing machines and parts.

Motion platform

The motion platform is a Ultimaker 1[3] 3D printer.

Controller

We have replaced the original controller with an OpenBuilds Blackbox[4], and use an OpenBuilds Interface[5]

Power supply

We are using the Powercore V1. Manual[6], hardware[7], firmware[8].

Programware / software

EDMWeb[9] is the CAM software used.

Sikkerhet / safety

  • do not touch when running
  • stop cutting if a short occurs
  • run only with dielectric fluid in the bath

Bruk / usage

The powercore guys made a nice video: Powercore V1 Quickstart Guide[10].

You need to have a dielectric fluid in the bath, de-ionized water is good. The workpiece is connected to the anode (positive side) and the tool to the cathode (negative side).

Plassering / location

The machine lives in a corner of the printer room.
