However, when a ceramic material is machined by using a drill as in the above-mentioned conventional technique, the drill is severely worn, the cost is increased, the accuracy is poor, and the machining is time-consuming. There was such a problem. Also, a method of performing hole processing using a wire obtained by electrodepositing diamond has been proposed, but since the hardness of diamond abrasive grains is too high, the polishing surface of the through-hole is not polished smoothly by this processing alone. There's a problem. Therefore, as a result of intensive studies by the present inventors, the use of a polishing wire having the outer periphery of a wire body coated with a magnetic powder in a wire electric discharge machine makes it possible to smoothly penetrate a cylindrical body such as an optical fiber ferrule. A method of polishing was devised.

When the workpiece 10 is made of a conductive ceramic, prior to polishing with the polishing wire W, an electric discharge wire is attached to the wire electric discharge machine and the electric discharge machining is carried out. Hole processing may be performed on the through hole 8 of the work 10. Here, in the wire electric discharge machine, when the electric discharge machining wire or the polishing wire W is fed from the head portion 2 to the lower wire guide 4 and inserted into the through hole 8 of the work 10, Utilizes the automatic wire insertion function built into the wire electric discharge machine. That is, the wire is fed in advance from the wire supply bobbin 12 and the tip of the wire is
The wire is set to a position lower than the lower side, and the wire feed roller 24 is driven to feed the wire to the lower side and guide the wire to the position of the wire collecting roller 40. If the wire feed roller 24 continues to be driven, the wire collection roller 4
The wire passing through 0 abuts on a wire sensing plate 44 provided on the back side of the wire collection box 42 while slightly tilting downward. In this case, a voltage is applied between the wire and the wire sensing plate 44, and a current flows between the two.
By detecting this current, the driving of the wire feed roller 24 is stopped, and the automatic insertion operation of the wire is completed. In addition, at the time of the automatic insertion operation of the wire, in order to assist the feeding of the wire, usually, deionized water is flowed together with the wire.
