CHMER CM A43C

Q: How much does the CHMER CM A43C cost?

The price estimate for the CHMER CM A43C is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/chmer-cm-a43c#price; the request is passed to CHMER or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the CHMER CM A43C that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

The CHMER CM A43C is a bridge-type CNC die sinker EDM with 400 x 300 mm (15.7 x 11.8 in) of table travel and 350 mm (13.8 in) of ram travel. CHMER describes the A series as a bridge design to fit heavy workpieces with a small footprint, and the figures bear that out: the machine carries a 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) workpiece inside outside dimensions of 1,910 x 1,800 x 2,280 mm.

The generator and the dielectric tank are both built in, which is where the compact outline comes from. The work tank measures 1,100 x 640 x 400 mm (43.3 x 25.2 x 15.7 in), and the dielectric volume is 480 L (127 gal) with paper filtration. Two generator ratings are offered, 50N and 75N, with maximum machining currents of 50 A and 75 A and power inputs of 4 kVA and 5 kVA.

Positioning uses linear glass scales in a closed-loop control system. The controller is PC based with dialogue programming: after the operator enters electrode material, workpiece material and electrode size, the working program is made automatically. An APC protection circuit is there to prevent arcing in finish machining.

Electrode weight is limited to 100 kg (220 lb), and the ram platen sits 260-610 mm above the table. Tool changer and C axis are options, as is CE conformity on the accessory list. CHMER's page gives two different machine weights for this model, so none is shown here.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the travels of the CM A43C?

Table travel is 400 x 300 mm (15.7 x 11.8 in) in X and Y, and ram travel is 350 mm (13.8 in). The table measures 650 x 400 mm (25.6 x 15.7 in) and the work tank 1,100 x 640 x 400 mm (43.3 x 25.2 x 15.7 in).

02 Which generators are available for the CM A43C?

Two: the 50N with a maximum machining current of 50 A and a power input of 4 kVA, and the 75N with 75 A and 5 kVA. Both list an electrode wear rate of 0.2% and a best surface roughness of 0.25 μm Ra, and both are built into the machine.

03 How much weight can the CM A43C carry?

The maximum workpiece weight is 1,000 kg (2,200 lb) and the maximum electrode weight is 100 kg (220 lb). CHMER attributes the load capacity to the bridge design.

04 Is a tool changer included on the CM A43C?

No. The option list names a tool changer, a C axis, a fire extinguisher, a magnetic base and CE conformity. Standard accessories are a paper filter, clamping kit, tool box, flushing nozzles, machine stand, drill chuck, electrode holder and halogen work lamp.
