摘要:
A method for measuring accurately the temperature and distribution of the wire while executing an electrical discharge machining. After the machining voltage is turned off, the loop current (IL) flows. The resistance between electrodes (11 and 12) is obtained from this loop current (IL) and the voltage between the electrodes (11 and 12) measured by a differential amplifier (13). From this resistance, the temperature of the wire (1) is obtained. Thus, the wire temperature can be measured accurately during an actual machining.

A device for automatic connection of the wire electrode in a wire cut spark machine, which is capable of conducting automatic connection of the wire electrode smoothly and reliably. A wire processing unit (90) integrally and rotatably coupled to a rotary shaft (61) of a pneumatic pressure motor (60) has a nozzle-forming unit (120) which, when it is opened, forms a slit (S) that permits a wire electrode (W) to pass through and which, when it is closed, forms a nozzle hole (125) that can fit to an upper wire guide (12). The wire processing unit (90) is selectively located by means of a stopper (150) at either a wire inserting position or a wire retreat position. In case the wire electrode is broken, the wire processing unit is driven by a motor from the retreat position to the wire inserting position. Then, the nozzle-forming unit is closed, so that the wire electrode introduced through the slit when the wire processing unit is driven is held in the nozzle hole. Thereafter, as a working liquid is supplied from the upper wire guide to the nozzle hole, the wire electrode is fed and automatically connected, being confined by the working liquid injected onto the work (P).

An electric discharge machining apparatus of the wire-cutting type is equipped with a wire cutting unit between an upper wire guide member and a work table, the wire cutting unit being allowed to move in a horizontal direction to traverse a wire electrode (W) which downwardly extends with respect to the upper wire guide member from a wire passage of the upper wire guide member. The wire cutting unit comprises a base block (55), and a movable block (56) which can approach or separate away from the base block to define a slit (60) that can be opened or closed relative thereto and to define a nozzle hole (61). The slit extends in a horizontal direction in which the wire cutting unit moves to accept the wire electrode. The nozzle hole can be connected to the lower end of wire passage of the upper wire guide member, and is so formed as to inject a liquid toward the wire passage of the lower wire guide member, the liquid being supplied into the wire passage of the upper wire guide member. The wire cutting unit has a wire detector (66) for detecting an end of the wire electrode between the base block and movable block, and has wire cutting means (62) for cutting the wire electrode between the base block and the movable block.
摘要:
This invention provides a wire cut electric discharge machining apparatus which can prevent electrolytic corrosion of a work due to a short-circuit detection voltage applied from short-circuit detection means between the work and a wire electrode and can therefore produce products free from corrosion scratches. The electric discharge machining apparatus includes a relay (20) for selectively short- circuiting a wire electrode (1) and a work (2) through a current supply element (3) or a relay (40) for selectively cutting off the electric connection between short-circuit detection means (8, 9) and the wire electrode through the current supply element, and both relays are responsive to a control output signal from a numeric controller (10). When the discharge machining is finished, the relay (20 or 40) operates in response to the control output signal supplied from a numeric controller and the wire electrode and the work are short-circuited or the short-circuit detection means and the wire electrode are cut off from each other so that the application of the short-circuit detection voltage between the work and the tool electrode is prevented.
摘要:
A discharge machining controller in which a power source for discharge machining of a wire cut electric spark machine is controlled depending upon a leakage current that flows through a wire electrode (2) and a work (3), in order to obtain stable electric discharge and favourable surface coarseness, In the controller, a peak value of machining voltage applied across the wire electrode (2) and the work (3) is detected by a peak voltage detector circuit (D4, R8, R9, C2). As the leakage current increases and the detected value decreases, the ON time and OFF time of switching elements (Tri, Tr2) that exist between the DC power source (1) and the wire electrode and work are switched from values smaller than a time constant (R1.C1) of the charge/discharge circuit into larger values, whereby the machining voltage increases. When the leakage current decreases again, these values are switched into values smaller than the time constant. This makes it possible to maintain the effective machining voltage it a proper value.
