Hi All
I build a XY Tables for High frequency plasma cutters. However the HF start causes EMF surges which tend to interfere with the PC, stepper drivers etc. I saw a post somewhere that standard copper wire wound on suitable formers with the ends shorted with a suitable cap will act as an excellent HF/EMF absorbentant. You only need to fix theses formers on or around the machine/apparatus generating the emf. What I would like to know is what is the wire size, how many turns, former material and diameter and cap values. Any help would be appreciated
