| Abstract: | This paper clarifies the mechanism of how electromagnetic force applied to the wire electrode in wire electrical discharge machining (wire-EDM) is generated. This electromagnetic force is caused not only by DC component but also by AC components of the discharge current supplied to the wire. We therefore developed and used a two-dimensional finite element method (FEM) program to analyze the electromagnetic field taking into account electromagnetic induction. Assuming that trapezoidal pulse current is supplied to the wire, distributions of the current density and magnetic flux density were analyzed and changes in the electromagnetic force applied to the wire were calculated. Wire movement when the electromagnetic force alone was applied to the wire was also calculated. The calculated wire movement agreed with the measured wire movement when pulse current actually used in WEDM was supplied to the wire, clarifying the mechanism of electromagnetic force generation. |
