This paper describes the NC simulator system for Wire-cut electrodischarge machining. Electrodischarge Wire-cut machining is applicable to all materials including metals, alloys, and most carbides. Although CAM system generate the NC code considering electrodischarge conditions, incorrect Wire-cut tool path bring about fatal results. The simplest way of simulating a EDM process is to display the trajectory of Wire-cutter location by line segments. With this kind of simulation, the programmer can get a general idea about whether the wire is moving as planned but cannot locate gouging or excess material because only the wire location will be seen, not the changes in the workpiece as it is machined. The ideal way of simulating the EDM process is to display the solid model of the workpiece as it is machined. Therefore we propose the ideal NC simulator system for Wire-cut EDM.

Micro-EDM technology (or the manufacture of miniature parts is used to make a micro hole. Two electrode shaping methods, mechanical electrode grinding and WEDG technique, have been studied. In this study, an electrode shaping method by using previously machined hole is introduced in order to obtain an optimal hole-making condition. Key factors such as applied voltage, capacitance, feedrate, and hole-dimension have an influence on the fabricating error of electrode shaping, which are taper ratio of a hole, electrode form accuracy, and electrode surface. Therefore, we try to investigate the optimal fabricating of electrode shaping from various experiments. Results from experiments, it was able to minimize the electrode fabricating error as voltage increases, and also applied feedrate and capacitance decreases.

Currently, the aircraft industry, aircraft parts as well as airframe have been developed in producing, the aircraft parts and fuselages have been produced the product by cutting rather than forging and casting because of the residual stress and stress concentration. In this study, the aircraft is being used in many parts of aluminium alloy 2024 in wire-cut E.D.M. The selected experimental parameters are peak current, no-load voltage, off time and feed rate. It is found that cutting mountain part on surface roughness of the curve 0.3mm than 0.25mm diameter wire electrode is stable in many uniform distribution.

Titanium alloy conducted in this experimental study has superior corrosive resistant and is mainly used in aerospace, automotive and petro-chemical industries. It is also treated with important materials of domestic goods due to improvement of the standard of living. In this study specimens were processed in the wire EDM after annealing, solution treatment and aging. Results were obtained through repeated experments of main rough process and finish process with the change of process parameters. Processing characteristics such as surface hardness, surfaces roughness, shape of processed surface and components were measured. The results confirmed that the above mentioned elements were improved in accordance with the number of process. Therefore, the optimal wire EDM condition in accord with processing characteristics is proposed in this experiment.

From the experimental study of Wire-Cut EDM of die-material(SKD-11), machining characteristics such as machining rate, surface roughness and hardness have been observed and evaluated under the conditions varing pulse on time, pulse off time, peak voltage after fixing other conditions. It was found that various operating conditions have significant influences on machining rate, surface roughness. Hardness of workpiece was unaffected by operating conditions.

The electrical discharge machining(EDM) with Si electrode instead of Gr or Cu electrode. made enormous effects on the surface. machining time, anti-caustic workpiece surface and so on In this paper. we experimented on the inter-role distance during discharge the electrical phenomenon of inter-pole, the distribution of discharge point. the distribution of off load time. etc., using Si electrode Cu electrode and Gr electrode under the same machining condition. As a result of a large quantity generated exclusive powders. the performance of the EDM using Si electrode. compared with EDM using others. is improved. We show that the quantities of those make far pole-gap discharge and discharge scatter under stable machining status possible.

In a micro-EDM, it is well known that an RC circuit is suitable as a discharge circuit because of its low pulse width and relatively high peak current. To increase machining speed without changing unit discharge energy, charge resistance should be decreased. But, when the resistance is very low, continuous (or normal) arc discharge occurs, electrode wear increases and machining speed is reduced remarkably. In this paper, an RC circuit with transistors is used in a micro-EDM. Experimental results show that the RC circuit with transistors can cut off a continuous (o. normal) arc discharge effectively if the duty factor and switching period of the transistor are set up optimally. Through experiments with varying charge resistances, it is shown that the RC circuit with transistors has about two times faster machining speed than that of an RC circuit.
