After electrical discharge machining is performed in the machining tank 12, the machining fluid 10 containing sludge is sent to the drain tank 22. The heavy sludge is settled in the drain tank 22, and the processing liquid 10 containing light sludge is sent to the filter 28 by the pressure pump 26. This filter 28 is made of paper, cloth, etc. as in the conventional case. Therefore, here the particle size is 2~

In this way, a machining fluid 10 from which sludge and impurities are highly removed is obtained. This filtered machining fluid 10 is sent to the supply fluid tank 24, and further circulated to the machining tank 12 by a pressure pump 32 through a flow rate regulating valve 38. Further, a part of the machining fluid 10 sent from the supply fluid tank 24 to the machining tank 12 is diverted, and the resistivity value is measured by the resistivity measuring device 34, and this value is set as a value specified in advance in the control box 36. In the following cases, the electromagnetic valve 30 is opened, a part of the machining fluid 10 sent from the filter 28 to the supply liquid tank 24 is passed through the ion exchange tank 14 to increase the specific resistance value, and the machining fluid 10 in the supply liquid tank 24 is

The present invention provides a precoat layer 42 made of diatomaceous earth and activated carbon on the filter 28 in the processing fluid circulation device 16.
Since it is attached, it is possible to remove sludge and impurities of 2 to 1 μm or less, which were conventionally considered impossible to remove. For this reason, the amount of floating solids contained in the machining fluid 10 obtained from the machining fluid circulation device 16 is extremely small, and the amount of floating solids contained in the machining fluid 10 is extremely small, especially due to the reduction in carbon powder etc. due to filtration. There are no negative effects.

A solenoid valve 48 is connected to the pressure pump 26 via the drain tank 22 and the pressure pump 26.
When a regenerating device 50 for the precoat layer 42 is provided, when the filter 28 becomes clogged, the valve 48 of the drainage tank 22 is closed, the valve 46 of the storage tank 44 is opened, and the pressure pump 26 is used to drain the storage tank. The precoat layer 42 can be easily regenerated by sending the precoat agent in the filter 22 to the filter 28 and forming a new precoat layer 42. After the regeneration is completed, the valve 46 of the storage tank 22 is closed, and the drain tank 22 is closed.
