How much does the CHMER G32S cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the CHMER G32S 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 G32S is the smallest wire EDM in the G series, with 360 x 250 mm (14.2 x 9.8 in) of X and Y travel and 220 mm (8.7 in) of Z. CHMER's table gives the largest workpiece as 725 x 560 x 215 mm and 300 kg (661 lb), so the tank takes a block considerably larger than the area the wire can reach in one setup.
All axes are driven by AC servo motors and the X Y feed rate tops out at 800 mm/min (31.5 ipm). The U and V axes travel 60 x 60 mm (2.4 x 2.4 in), and the taper row reads ±14.5°/80 with a wide-angled nozzle. That is the narrower of the two taper ratings in the series: the G64S is listed at ±21°/100. Wire from 0.15 to 0.3 mm runs on the machine, with 0.25 mm as the standard size, at up to 300 mm/sec and 300-2,500 gf of tension.
CHMER's note for submerged cutting should be read before quoting tall parts: the recommended maximum workpiece height is the Z stroke minus 45mm. Two 1T water chillers, one for flushing and one for submerged work, are on the standard list, as are diamond guides and auto data recovery after a blackout. Auto wire threading (AWT) is an option, not standard, and so is the 30kg auto wire chopper. The machine weighs 2,375 kg (5,236 lb) and occupies 2,300 x 2,300 x 2,100 mm, with a 590 L (156 gal) tank.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Compact for a submerged-capable wire EDM: 2,300 x 2,300 x 2,100 mm (W x D x H) and 2,375 kg (5,236 lb)
- Takes workpieces up to 725 x 560 x 215 mm and 300 kg (661 lb) on 360 x 250 mm of X and Y travel
- Runs wire from 0.15 to 0.3 mm at 300-2,500 gf of tension, so fine and standard wire share one machine
- Water chillers for both flushing and submerged circuits are standard accessories
- Auto data recovery after a blackout is included as standard
Limitations
- Taper is listed at ±14.5°/80, against ±21°/100 on the G64S
- Auto wire threading (AWT) is on the option list, so unattended multi-opening jobs need it ordered
- X Y feed rate is limited to 800 mm/min (31.5 ipm) with AC servo drives; the series has no linear motor axis
- U and V travel is 60 x 60 mm (2.4 x 2.4 in), which limits taper height and offset

Frequently Asked Questions
01
X and Y travel are 360 mm (14.2 in) and 250 mm (9.8 in), Z is 220 mm (8.7 in), and the U and V axes move 60 x 60 mm (2.4 x 2.4 in). The largest workpiece CHMER lists is 725 x 560 x 215 mm at up to 300 kg (661 lb).
02
CHMER states that in submerged condition the recommended maximum workpiece height is the Z stroke minus 45mm. The Z travel in the table is 220 mm (8.7 in), and the maximum workpiece height listed is 215 mm, so check the submerged allowance for your part before committing a tall block.
03
Not as standard. Auto Wire Threading (AWT) is on CHMER's option list for this model, together with a swinging panel, a 2-in-1 transformer and AVR, a 30kgs wire feeder, an auto wire chopper and a DC inverter chiller.
04
The wire diameter range is 0.15-0.3 mm (0.006-0.012 in) and the standard size is 0.25 mm (0.010 in). Maximum wire feed rate is 300 mm/sec and wire tension is adjustable from 300 to 2,500 gf. Brass wire in DIA.0.25mm is on the standard accessory list.
