BX17 Arc Generator

The BX17 has the following product features:

• Single very compact universal 19″ 3U enclosure
• High efficiency switched mode current source
• Mains input voltage range 100-240V 50/60 Hz
• Serial ASCII interface
• Serial Modbus-RTU interface (upcoming SW release)
• Fully configurable arc parameters
• Arc current up to 30A
• Cutting frequency up to 200 KHz
• ISO-Frequency mode
• ISO-Pulse mode (same amount of energy in each arc strike)
• Single shot mode by external optical isolated trigger signal.
• Analog differential speed command output signal for CNC speed control
• Differential sense input for accurate arc voltage measurements
• All data I/O interfaces optically isolated
• Workpiece edge finding mode, with dedicated isolated output
• Switched 12V output for high voltage / EDM active warning light
• Firmware updates through USB interface (additional features will be released in the form of SW updates)
• PC application with material parameter library and lots of other features
• Self diagnostics
• Protected by hardware authentication and secure boot
• Reserved extra IO for additional future functionalities
• Stand alone mode (serial interface only required once to save the parameters in non-volatile memory, after that the generator can be used without serial interface).
