摘要:
In a rotation member (5) rotatably engaged with a housing (3), a pulsing electric discharge is generated in a processing liquid or in a gas, between an electrode and the rotation member (5). The electrode is a chemical compound from metallic powder or metal, or a molded body formed by molding ceramic powder, or a molded body obtained by heating the molded body. Energy of the electric discharges causes coating to be formed on an engagement portion (15) engaging the housing (3), the coating formed from the material of the electrode or a substance to which the electrode material combined by the energy of the electric discharges.

An apparatus has a green compact electrode including a material of a coating formed on a workpiece by a discharge, a power source for supplying a first voltage, a voltage detector for detecting a voltage between the workpiece and the electrode, and a pulse current generator for generating and outputting a pulse current from the first voltage, and for cutting off the output when a predetermined period of time has passed after the voltage is detected to be less than a detection voltage. The pulse current is supplied between the workpiece and the electrode, and the detection voltage is less than the first voltage by 5% to 20% of the first voltage.

Charged-particle-beam (CPB) mapping projection-optical systems and adjustment methods for such systems are disclosed that can be performed quickly and accurately. In a typical system, an irradiation beam is emitted from a source, passes through an irradiation-optical system, and enters a Wien filter (“E×B”). Upon passing through the E×B, the irradiation beam passes through an objective-optical system and is incident on an object surface. Such impingement generates an observation beam that returns through the objective-optical system and the E×B in a different direction to a detector via an imaging-optical system. An adjustment-beam source emits an adjustment beam used for adjusting and aligning the position of, e.g., the object surface and/or the Wien's condition of the E×B. The adjustment beam can be off-axis relative to the objective-optical system. For such adjusting and aligning, fiducial marks (situated, e.g., in the plane of the object surface) can be used that are optimized for the CPB-optical system and the off-axis optical system. Desirably, the image formed on the detector when electrical voltage and current are not applied to the E×B is in the same position as the image formed on the detector when electrical voltage and current are applied to the E×B. Also provided are “evaluation charts” for use in such alignments that do not require adjustment of the optical axis of the irradiation-optical system, and from which the kinetic-energy distribution of the emitted adjustment beam is stable.

An electrode for electric discharge surface treatment, in which a pulse-like electric discharge is caused between the electrode and a work in a dielectric fluid or an atmosphere, and in which a coat of an electrode material or a substance that is generated by a reaction of the electrode material due to an electric discharge energy is formed on a surface of the work, is a molded powder that is formed by molding a material powder including a metallic powder, a metallic compound powder, and a conductive ceramic powder. A powder solid that is formed as a result of coagulation of the material powder, and that is included in the molded powder has a diameter shorter than a distance between the electrode and the work.

For this objective, the wiring pattern generation unit generates a wiring pattern as the information for specifying an in-area wiring route to be wired in each row and an in-area wiring route to be connected to the next row among the solder ball connection pad area closer to the wire bond pad area, based on the design conditions of the wiring route stored in the design condition memory. Then, the wiring plan generation unit generates a wiring plan laying out the plurality of wiring routes by combining the wiring patterns generated for each row, and the wiring rule check unit selects some of the generated wiring plans suited for the wiring rules and generates the plurality of wiring candidates. Furthermore, the quality rating unit rates the generated wiring candidates and selects the best wiring candidate.
摘要:
A machining pulse control apparatus applies a first polarity pulse voltage during a machining operation and a second opposite polarity voltage in a machining stop period in which the electrode is moved away from and toward the workpiece during a jump operation. Preferably, the second opposite polarity is applied for a period of time sufficient to maintain the voltage across the machining gap at zero voltage. The amount of direct current voltage applied during the jump operation is adaptively controlled.
