프레스금형의 부품 중에서 펀치와 다이플레이트를 제작하는 방법은 공작기계만을 사용하여 제작하는 경우와 공작기계와 와이어 컷 방전가공기를(W-EDM)를 병행 사용하는 경우가 있다. 그런데 공작기계만을 사용하여 제작 할 때는 금형수명(Die Life)이 200만-230만 스트로크였는데 와이어 컷 방전가공기를 사용한 제작에서는 70만-80만 스트로크에서 금형수명을 다하고 있다. 이것은 W-EDM후에 발생되는 가공변질층으로 예측되므로 W-EDM전과 W-EDM후의 가공면에 대한 SEM촬영을 실시하여 가공변질충의 발생여부를 확인하고 이에 대한 제거방법을 연구하고자 하였다.

Recent industrial requirements for highly precise shape processing have brought the electric discharge machining (EDM) in great need. High precision in EDM is primarily achieved by high performance controllers. However there exists inherent precision loss due to structural deformation. On this background, we study structural deformation characteristics of wire cut EDM via finite element (FE) analysis and axiomatic design. Two different wire cut EDMs are selected as analysis models. 3D CAD package I-Deas is first used to construct FE models of wire cut EDMs, and then ABAQUS FE code is used for following structural analysis. Pertinency of FE mesh refinement is discussed in terms of ${\eta}-factor$. It is shown that performance accuracy of EDM depends strongly on the structural characteristics. Some design enhancements are suggested in an axiomatic design point of view. Finally we provide weight and temperature induced displacement discrepancies between wire end points as position functions of each subframe.

The effect of the numbers of processing on the punch and surface roughness of die block in the W-EDM, which is frequently used to manufacture parts of press die is studied. W-EDM equipment(Sodic A500H), the application of which has increased for its precision, is used in the process three times. To inspect the roughness of the three-time-processed dimension of the punch and the die, the surface roughness measuring instrument(System 5000 of Federal) is used.

Punch and die plate which are press die parts can be made using machine tool or using both machine tool and W-EDM. When machine tool is used, the die life is 2,000,000 to 230,000 strokes. But with W-EDM, the die life is 700,00 to 800,000 strokes. This can be caused by the process deformation layer after W-EDM. SEM pictures of processed section before and after W-EDM are taken to see if the process deformation layer appeared. Also the elimination method is studied.

This paper deals with the precision NURBS interpolator for wire-EDM. Previous research about OAC (Open Architecture Controller) is mostly aimed at NC cutting machines such as milling or lathes, and hence these results are inadequate to apply to wire-EDM. In contradiction to NC machines, wire-EDM operates relatively slow feed rates and based on a feedback control loop to the machining process. The 2-stage interpolation method which reflects wire-EDM specific characteristics was proposed. The constant interpolation error could be acquired through 1 st stage interpolation. Feed rate regulation was performed through 2nd stage interpolation. The suggested algorithm was implemented to test-bed PC-NC system. Computer simulations and the experimental machining were conducted.

In wire discharge machining which is using STD 11 as die materials, the major factors of machining speed are discharge voltage, discharge current, and discharge time. All of the three factors give the effect. Increasing of the discharge pulse time gets groove width wider and it relatively increases surface roughness and clearance. If no load voltage is decreased, surface roughness is good but it decreases machining speed. If on time is increased, machining speed will get faster and clearance and offset value also get bigger.

This paper presents the tension control of a wire-cut discharge machine using electrorheological(E,R) fluid based brake system. On the basis of the tension level required in the machine, an appropriate size of the ER brake which features design simplicity, fast response and salient controllability is designed. Considering the Bingham property of ER fluid and actuator response time, the governing equation of the ER brake is derived. And a tension propagation of wire electrode is modeled via frequency response. The tension control performance of the discharge machine is simulated by using a robust sliding mode controller.
