I'm brand new to EDM hole drilling. My machines are imported by Belmont from Taiwan- they are Yan Yang brand SY series. I'm drilling 6 holes using a canned cycle & the depth is coming out +/- .100". I haven't spotted any pattern yet like getting progressively shallower/deeper or 5th hole always deeper, etc.
The documentation is fair, but I can't tell from the manual how hole depth is being adjusted to compensate for electrode wear. That seems like a possible cause, but may be totally wrong.
Any ideas on possible other causes or explanation of how electrode wear is accounted for are greatly appreciated!
