A wire electrical discharge machine includes: a gap voltage detector for detecting a voltage across an electrode gap; a first voltage control unit for applying a first voltage to the electrode gap; a discharge determiner for determining whether or not the electrode gap is in a discharging state during application of the first voltage; and a second voltage control unit for supplying a machining current through the electrode gap when the electrode gap is in a discharging state. After a supply of the machining current to the electrode gap, even when a discharge is induced by the next application of the first voltage to the electrode gap, the second voltage control unit prohibits application of a second voltage to the electrode gap.

A method and device for electrical discharge machining (EDM) a workpiece by means of a train of machining pulses. During the machining time the machining pulses are applied to the working gap between workpiece and electrode. An open voltage is first applied, and it is increased to a second open voltage level if a discharge does not occur within a waiting time d.sub.0, and further increased to a third open voltage level if a discharge does not occur within a second waiting time d.sub.1.

An average product of the actual open voltages times the partial ignition delays is computed and subtracted from the product of a reference open voltage times the total ignition delay, and the servo setpoint value is adjusted accordingly. The actual axes positions are sampled in real time and the discharge electrical parameters are adjusted accordingly. The discharge electrical parameters can be adjusted according to the duration of d0 and d1.

The invention relates to a method for electrical discharge machining of workpieces by electrical discharge pulses generated by a power module of an electrical discharge machine. The invention is characterized in that firstly the discharge voltage of a number N1 of electrical discharge pulses is acquired and stored, secondly a front discharge voltage (63) is determined out of this amount of N1 acquired discharge voltages and thirdly, the voltage Uhps (64) of the electrical discharge pulses produced by the power module for machining the workpiece (17) is adjusted in function of the determined front discharge voltage (63).

The invention relates to a method and device for electrical Wire electrical discharge machining method (WEDM) for forming a desired pattern on a workpiece by a WEDM machine tool, in which a preliminary voltage pulse is applied to a gap between a wire electrode and a workpiece, and in which, at the breakdown of said preliminary voltage pulse, a first machining discharge pulse is applied to the wire electrode.

In a wire electric discharge machine, time from application of a voltage to a machining gap between a workpiece and a wire electrode until occurrence of electric discharge is measured as a discharge delay time, and the measured discharge delay time is integrated over a predetermined measurement period to calculate a discharge delay integrated time. Further, the number of times of the voltage application in the measurement period is counted. An average discharge delay time per voltage application in the measurement period is calculated from the discharge delay integrated time and the number of times of voltage application. The movement of the wire electrode with respect to the workpiece is controlled on the basis of the average discharge delay time.

Whether or not an inter-electrode voltage exceeds a voltage threshold is determined after a predetermined inter-electrode state determination period has passed since application of an induction voltage (inter-electrode voltage) to an inter-electrode gap. Thus, an inter-electrode gap amount between a wire electrode and a work is estimated. A pause time during which electrical discharge is not performed is changed according to an estimation result of the inter-electrode gap amount.

A primary power supply charges a capacitor by turning on a switching element and, upon completion of charging, turns off the switching element. Then, an AC pulse voltage is applied to the gap between a wire electrode and a workpiece by alternately turning on and off a switching element present in a secondary power supply. After a dielectric breakdown occurs between the wire electrode and the workpiece, the switching element is turned on to connect the capacitor so that the capacitor supplies a pulse current for machining.

The electric discharge machining device includes: a first switch provided between the positive pole of a power supply and a work piece; a second switch provided between the negative pole of the power supply and the work piece; a third switch provided between the negative pole of the power supply and a tool electrode; a fourth switch provided between the positive pole of the power supply and the tool electrode; and a pulse generating device. In order to supply current pulses with a straight polarity, the pulse generating device repeatedly switches on and off either the first or third switch while the other switch is on. In order to supply current pulses with a reverse polarity, the pulse generating device repeatedly switches on and off either the second or fourth switch while the other switch is on.
