High-speed electrical discharge machining (EDM) milling is investigated with working gap control. EDM milling has a merit that does not need complex electrode fabrication; however, it is necessary to improve the removal rate in EDM milling. Rotation of the electrode improves the removal rate, but this rotation causes a periodic change in the working voltage. As a consequence, the periodic change causes a disturbance that decreases the control performance. EDM milling realizes a high machining precision by the scanning method. A small working area allows for fast scanning. If the working gap is appropriate, it becomes longer because the machined surface of the workpiece is removed. Therefore, the conventional controller remains at the steady offset and lowers the machining efficiency. The proposed controller introduces a notch filter, which eliminates the frequency component due to rotation of the electrode. It also has a feed-forward compensator to eliminate the steady offset. The controller for each machining condition is derived from a coordinate transformation and the least-squares approximation. It is confirmed that the proposed controller achieves machining speeds that are 2–6 times faster in a straight line and greater than 30% higher in the profile machining than in the conventional one. 相似文献

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is developing as a new alternative method for slicing single crystal silicon carbide (SiC) ingots into thin wafers. Aiming to improve the performance of EDM slicing of SiC wafers, the fundamental characteristics of EDM of SiC single crystal were experimentally investigated in this paper and compared to those of steel. Furthermore, EDM cutting of SiC ingot by utilizing copper foil electrodes was proposed and its performance was investigated. It is found that the EDM characteristics of SiC are very different from those of steel. The EDM machining rate of SiC is higher and the tool wear ratio is lower compared to those of steel, despite SiC having a higher thermal conductivity and melting point. Thermal cracks caused by the thermal shock of electrical discharges and the Joule heating effect due to the higher electrical resistivity are considered to be the main reasons for the higher material removal rate of SiC. It is concluded that the new EDM cutting method utilizing a foil electrode instead of a wire electrode has potential for slicing SiC wafers in the future. 相似文献

A new technique of EDM coring of single crystal silicon carbide (SiC) ingot was proposed in this paper. Currently single crystal SiC devices are still of high cost due to the high cost of bulk crystal SiC material and the difficulty in the fabrication process of SiC. In the manufacturing process of SiC ingot/wafer, localized cracks or defects occasionally occur due to thermal or mechanical causes resulted from fabrication processes which may waste the whole piece of material. To save the part of ingot without defects and maximize the material utilization, the authors proposed EDM coring method to cut out a no defect ingot from a larger diameter ingot which has localized defects. A special experimental setup was developed for EDM coring of SiC ingot in this study and its feasibility and machining performance were investigated. Meanwhile, in order to improve the machining rate, a novel multi-discharge EDM coring method by electrostatic induction feeding was established, which can realize multiple discharges in single pulse duration. Experimental results make it clear that EDM coring of SiC ingot can be carried out stably using the developed experimental setup. Taking advantage of the newly developed multi-discharge EDM method, both the machining speed and surface integrity can be improved. 相似文献

Micro electro discharge machining (micro EDM) is suitable for machining micro holes on metal alloy materials, and the micro holes can be machined even to several microns by use of wire electro discharge grinding (WEDG) of micro electrodes. However, considering practicability of micro holes <Φ100 μm in batch processing, the controllable accuracy of holes’ diameter, the consistency accuracy of repeated machining and the processing efficiency are required to be systematically improved. On the basis of conventional WEDG method, a tangential feed WEDG (TF-WEDG) method combined with on-line measurement using a charge coupled device (CCD) was proposed for improving on-line machining accuracy of micro electrodes. In TF-WEDG, removal resolution of micro-electrode diameter (the minimum thickness to be removed from micro electrode) is greatly improved by feeding the electrode along the tangential direction of wire-guide arc, and the resolution is further improved by employing negative polarity machining. Taking advantage of the high removal resolution, the precise diameter of micro-electrode can be achieved by the tangential feed of electrode to a certain position after diameter feedback of on-line measurement. Furthermore, a hybrid process was presented by combining the TF-WEDG method and a self-drilled holes method to improve the machining efficiency of micro electrodes. A cyclic alternating process of micro-electrode repeated machining and micro holes’ drilling was implemented for array micro holes with high consistency accuracy. Micro-EDM experiments were carried out for verifying the proposed methods and processes, and the experimental results show that the repeated machining accuracy of micro electrodes was less than 2 μm and the consistency accuracy of array micro holes was ±1.1 μm. 相似文献

In the electrical discharge machining (EDM) process, the overcut greatly affects the precision and accuracy of the workpiece dimensions. However, the overcut and the final workpiece dimensions are difficult to predict due to the non-linear, complex relationship among the electrode wear, the electrode diameter, electrical discharging parameters, and the machine positioning accuracy. In the present study, the variation of the side overcut and the bottom overcut, the electrode dimensions, the spark hole dimensions, and the machine positioning accuracy in the EDM process are investigated. Variance analysis is used in a batch process under different electrical discharging parameters. The experiment results show that the coupling effect between the electrode diameter and spark hole diameter is an important factor for estimating the variation of the side overcut in the EDM process. With inclusion of the coupling effects, the predicted variation of side and bottom overcut in a batch EDM process and the EDM machine positioning accuracy is shown to be in good agreement with experimental results. 相似文献

This paper describes micro-hole machining of a copper plate using the electro-discharge machining (EDM) process. Tungsten
carbide was selected as the material for the electrode and compared with a copper-electrode. A precision centreless grinding
process was employed to grind the electrode down to the desired diameter. A series of experiments were performed on a traditional
EDM machine to investigate the effects of electrode material polarity setting and of a rotating electrode. Results have shown
that electrode wear and hole enlargement are both smaller when positive polarity machining is selected; whereas electrode
wear is larger and machining speed is higher when negative polarity machining is selected. High-quality micro-hole machining
in copper can be achieved by the proposed method. 相似文献

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is an excellent method to machine tungsten carbide with high hardness and high toughness. However, debris from this material produced by EDM re-sticking on the workpiece surface remarkably affects working efficiency and dimension precision. Therefore, this study investigated the re-sticky phenomenon of tungsten carbide and how to reduce the debris re-sticking on the workpiece surface. In general, the polarity in EDM depended on the different electrical parameters of the machine input and the different materials of the tool electrode. The first item of investigation observed the re-sticky position of the debris to study the effect of different polarities during the EDM process. Next, the tool electrode was set at different conditions without rotation and with a 200 rpm rotational speed to evaluate the rotating effect in EDM. Finally, different lift distances of the electrode and different shapes of electrode with rotation were utilized to investigate the improvement for reducing debris re-sticking on the machining surface. The results showed that only negative polarity in EDM could cause the re-sticky phenomenon on tungsten carbide. On the other hand, debris would notably re-stick on any machining position when the tool electrode was not rotated in EDM. Besides, debris significantly stuck on the center of the working area with rotation of the electrode. Additionally, a larger lift distance of the tool electrode could reduce debris re-sticking on the working surface, but this process would decrease material removal rate in EDM. In the end, a special shaped design of the tool electrode resulted in the re-sticky debris completely vanishing, when the electrode width was 0.6 times the diameter of this cylindrical electrode. 相似文献

Electrical discharge machining (EDM) is a process that can be used effectively to machine conductive metals regardless of
their hardness. In the EDM process, material removal occurs because of the thermal energy of the plasma channel between the
electrode and the workpiece. During EDM, the electrode as well as the workpiece is abraded by the thermal energy. Tool wear
adversely affects the machining accuracy and increases tooling costs. Many previous studies have focused on mitigating the
problems of tool wear by investigating various EDM parameters. In this study, the tool wear problem was investigated on the
basis of the mobilities of electrons and ions in the plasma channel. The material removal volumes of both the electrode and
the workpiece were compared as functions of the gap voltage. The material removal difference according to the capacitance
was also investigated. The tool wear ratio was calculated under different EDM condition and an EDM conditions for reducing
the tool wear ratio was suggested. 相似文献

This study addresses micro-slit EDM machining feasibility using pure water as the dielectric fluid. Experimental results revealed
that pure water could be used as a dielectric fluid and adopting negative polarity EDM machining could obtain high material
removal rate (MRR), low electrode wear, small slit expansion, and little machined burr, compared to positive polarity machining.
In comparing kerosene versus pure water, pure water was observed to cause low carbon adherence to the electrode surface. Also
discharge energy does not decrease and the discharge processes are not interrupted. Therefore, MRR was higher, and related
electrode wear ratio compared to kerosene use was lower. In a continual EDM with multi-slit machining, kerosene will cause
carbon element adherence, creating an initially high MRR and electrode wear, with rapid decline. However, pure water will
not cause carbon element adherence on the electrode surface, so MRR and electrode wear is always stable in this process. 相似文献

Electrodischarge diamond grinding (EDDG) is a hybrid machining process comprising conventional grinding and electrodischarge machining (EDM) as its constituent processes. It has the potential of shaping advanced engineering materials. Temperature of the workpiece and material removal rate are chosen as responses in full factorial (33) design with current, pulse-on time, and wheel speed as process parameters. Specific energy is a vital consideration for any machining process. EDM is known for its inefficiency. Experiments were conducted with a specially fabricated bronze disk as tool electrode to evaluate specific energy in EDM, and the results were compared with that of EDDG. It has been found that specific energy required in EDDG is less than that in EDM with a rotating disk electrode. 相似文献

In most of the commercially available EDM systems, the control parameters such as the electrode jump height and the discharge machining time between two consecutive electrode jump actions are set manually to constant values which can ensure stable machining even under the worst machining conditions. It is beneficial to keep the machining process stable, but much time is consumed in the electrode jump process. In order to improve the EDM efficiency, a new adaptive control strategy which directly and automatically regulates the electrode jump height and discharge machining time has been developed in this paper. Experimental results show that the adaptive control system can obviously improve the machining efficiency regardless of the surface area, shape, and depth of the machined dies. Meanwhile, the accuracy and surface roughness of the fabricated dies can be well retained. 相似文献
