본 연구에서는 유한요소해석을 통한 와이어 방전가공기의 설계검증을 위하여 두 모델을 선정하여 CAD 패키지 I-DEAS를 이용하여 3차원 유한 요소모델을 모델링한 후 상용 유한요소해석코드인 ABAQUS로 각 모델의 가공위치에 따른 해석을 수행하였다. JW-35A와 JW-60A 두 모델의 상호 비교 타당성 여부를 확인하기 위하여 ${\eta}-factor$ 개념을 이용하였다. 이어 공리적 설계 개념을 도입하여 오차보정을 위한 설계변수들의 선택과 방법이 적절함을 보이고 두 모델의 유한요소해석 결과를 상호 비교하여 구조물의 설계를 검증하고 변형 예측식을 유도하였다. 본 연구를 통해 유도된 변형 예측식 (5)-(6) 형태의 접근방법은 비단 방전가공기 뿐만 아니라 이와 유사한 형태의 공작기계에도 적용 할 수 있을 것이다.

In this study, a micro/nano-random-pattern-structure surface was machined by electric discharge machining (EDM) followed by replicating the EDM surface with a silicone elastomer having low energy and greater hydrophobicity. The variation of hydrophobicity was of prime interest and was examined as a function of the surface roughness of the replicated silicone elastomer. The hydrophobicity was evaluated by the water contact angle (WCA) measured on the relevant surface. For the experiments, the original surfaces were machined by die sinking electric discharge machining (DS-EDM) and wire cutting electric discharge machining (WC-EDM). The ranges of surface roughness were Ra $0.8{\sim}19{\mu}m$ for the DS-EDM and Ra $0.5{\sim}4.7{\mu}m$ for the WC-EDM. In order to fabricate a hydrophobic surface, the EDM surfaces were directly replicated using a liquid-state silicone elastomer, which was thermally cured. The measured WCA on the replicated surfaces for DS-EDM was in the range of $115{\sim}130^{\circ}$ and for WC-EDM the WCA was in the range of $123{\sim}150^{\circ}$. Additionally, the dynamic hydrophobicity was evaluated by measuring an advancing and a receding WCA on the replicated silicone elastomer surfaces.

Micro electrical discharge machining (EDM) as a non-contact machining process is very effective for micromachining with a thin electrode because of its low machining reaction force. The micro-electrode machining device has the advantage of maintaining high precision through the whole processes and uses a feeding wire in the thin electrode tool manufacturing process. This study describes the design and evaluation of a micro-electrode machining device using optical photo-interrupter. The electrode was fabricated by reverse electrical discharge machining. The performance of designed system was evaluated to measure tension force according to feed speed of wire. This system for micro electrode fabrication proves the feasibility in the micro-EDM process of the micro holes and parts for industrial applications.

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.

This paper presents a step-by-step design of noncircular gears. From the diagram of angular velocity ratio of a noncircular gear pair, the pitch curves of the two mating gears are determined, and the perimeter of the pitch curve has been divided into equal-length segments by the number of teeth. A master tooth profile, which is a composite curve of circular arcs that represents involute, has been introduced. A noncircular gear pair has been designed by imposing the master tooth on the divided points of the pitch curve, and a full fillet has been achieved between neighbour teeth. Thus, the whole profile of the noncircular gear is a composite curve of arcs only, and consequently NC codes for wire EDM can be easily generated.

Experimental studies are carried out in order to investigate the effects of heat treatment on the surface machined by W-EDM. In this work, two ways of heat treatment after W-EDM are considered. As a comparison, the machined surface by a traditional method such as milling/grinding is also considered. Thereby, specimens are prepared by four different machining methods. Those are (1) milling and then grinding, (2) wire-cut electric discharge machining (W-EDM), and (3) low temperature heat treatment or (4) high temperature heat treatment after W-EDM. The resulting surface roughness are measured and the changes of surface microstructures are investigated using the scanning electron microscope (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). In general, heat treatment after W-EDM result in smoother surface and better chemical composition at the machined surface. Especially, high temperature tempering could remove defects in the thermally affected zone, which cause an overall deterioration of the surface machined by W-EDM.

This paper presents vibration characteristics of a wire cut discharge machine in which an electro-rheological brake actuator is used to control the wire tension. The ER brake actuator has several advantages including design simplicity, fast response time and real-time controllability. On the basis of the tension level required in the machine an appropriate size of the ER brake actuator is devised. The ER brake actuator is then incorporated with the machine and the field-dependent wire tension is experimentally evaluated. The straightness of the workpiece is also empirically investigated by changing the intensity of the electric field.

This paper introduces the system AUTO-CUT for the automatic generation of NC tapes for wire-cut EDM (Electrodischarge Machining) parts. The information input to the system is the description of the part geometries, the tool motions and the cutting conditions etc. The system generates CLDATA. Also dynamic graphic display of the tool motions can be-performed on the screen.

다양한 종류의 제품을 생산하는 프레스금형의 부품 중에서 펀치와 다이플레이트를 제작하는데 주로 W-EDM을 이용한다. W-EDM전에는 기계가공으로 제작된 펀치와 다이플레이트로 제품을 생산하게 되면 생산량이 200만~230만개를 생산하고 금형수명을 다하였다. 그러나 W-EDM으로 제작된 금형으로 제품을 생산하게 되면 생산수량이 70만~80만개를 생산하고 금형수명이 다하였다. 이것은 W-EDM한 후에 발생되는 가공변질층에 기인하는 것으로 사료되므로 W-EDM전과 W-EDM후의 가공면에 대한 SEM촬영을 실시하여 가공변질층의 발생을 확인하고 이에 대한 제거 방법을 연구하였다.
