I am trying to the the auto thread to work on a older Mitsubishi FX20. The machine and wire EDM process is new to me but I was able to cut a test part last week which was a big first step. Now I am trying to go through the whole machine and trying to get the auto thread to work. It seems to me that the water stream is not lined up for the top and bottom cups it’s close but a little bit out. When I try to run the auto thread it doesn’t work and the wire bunches up or comes out the top side of the bottom cup. I did a wire alignment for the U and V axes and have been pretty careful to clean up the whole machine and parts. I have cleaned the diamond guides in the ultrasonic, now and am wondering if there is another alignment I am missing or what else to try/test.
Hopefully there are some more tips out there.
Thanks
