Conventionally, in electrical discharge machining, relative movement is applied to the electrode and the workpiece in the direction in which the electrode is pushed into the workpiece, and the distance between the electrode and the workpiece is usually kept constant in that direction. Machining is carried out while using the servo. Here, in normal electric discharge machining, after rough machining, finishing machining is performed using a plurality of electrodes having the same shape but slightly different dimensions. This is because in rough machining, the machining speed is high but the machined surface is rough, while in finishing machining the machined surface is fine but the machining speed is low, and the side gap between the electrode and the workpiece is narrower in finishing machining. This is caused by Therefore, in order to perform machining from rough machining to finishing machining with a single electrode, after rough machining is completed, the electrode or workpiece is given a movement with an element perpendicular to the normal feed direction, such as an orbital circular motion. In the same way that an electrode with a large hanging dimension is used, an apparatus has been devised in which the electrode used for rough machining is also used to perform finishing machining.

This is, for example, as shown in Fig. 1, in which an electrode 1 and a workpiece 2 are placed opposite each other in an insulating liquid, and a pulsed current supplied from a pulsed current supply device 3 is applied to the machining gap. Process object 2. At that time, the electrode 1 is connected to the voltage differential circuit 4, the amplifier 5
A servo circuit consisting of a hydraulic servo valve 6 and a hydraulic cylinder 7 driven by the output signal of the circuit.
A servo mechanism consisting of the following servo mechanism advances the workpiece 2 in the pushing direction (Z-axis direction) such that, for example, the voltage Vd of the machining gap matches the reference value Vs on average. After the rough machining is completed to a depth set slightly before the final desired depth, the energy of one pulse of the pulse current supply device 3 is changed to be smaller, and the electrode motion control device 8 is further controlled by a known method. By moving the servo motors 9 and 10, the X-Y cross tables 11 and 12 are caused to continuously perform, for example, a circular motion. In this case, it is sufficient to apply a sine wave to the servo motors 9 and 10 having a phase difference of π/2 and a voltage having an amplitude corresponding to the difference in side gap between rough machining and finishing machining. Then, while the electrode 1 and the workpiece 2 are relatively orbiting in a circular motion in this manner, processing is performed again to a desired depth. In this case, the effect is equivalent to expanding the electrode 1 by a dimension corresponding to the diameter of the relative orbital circular motion, so that the rough machined surface caused by the previous rough machining is removed.

Here, when using this method to machine a corresponding hole on the workpiece 2 using the electrode 1 having an elliptical cross section as shown in FIG. The amount of workpiece 2 to be removed is much greater where the electrode 1 has a large radius of curvature compared to where it has a small radius of curvature. Therefore, as processing progresses,

As shown in FIG. 3, there is a large difference in the processed depth of the portion with a small radius of curvature.

Therefore, when machining deep holes with this device, the rough machined surface from the previous rough machining cannot be sufficiently removed, and the depth that the electrode reaches during finishing machining depends on the shape of the electrode.

Further, the coil portion of the differential transformer 13 is fixed to the fixed side of the machine, and its movable core is configured to move in the same manner as the electrode 1 in the Z-axis direction. For example, special public service in Showa 53
A circuit similar to Figure 12 of Publication No.-32112, the difference voltage Vd-Vs between the voltage Vd of the machining gap and the reference voltage.
This is a comparison selection circuit for preferentially selecting the lower one of the outputs of the differential transformer 13 and the differential transformer 13. Here, the operation of the comparison and selection circuit 14 is as follows.
As detailed in Publication No. 32112, if the position of the coil part of the differential transformer 13 fixed to the fixed side of the machine is set in advance, the voltage Vd in the machining gap will be higher than the set position. The position of the electrode 1 is controlled by the voltage difference Vd-Vs between the voltage and the reference voltage Vs, and when the electrode 1 reaches the set position, the differential transformer 1
By preferentially selecting the output No. 3, the servo mechanism consisting of the servo valve 6 and the hydraulic cylinder 7 controls the electrode 1 so that it does not fall below that position.

Next, the operation of the apparatus of this embodiment is such that when the electrode 1 is above the predetermined position set by the differential transformer 13 and the machining is in progress, the output of the differential transformer 13 is Since the comparison voltage V B is compared with the comparison voltage V B by the comparator 15, and as a result of the comparison, the comparison voltage is lower, the output of the comparator 15 remains zero.

Here, as the machining progresses and the electrode 1 reaches the set machining position, the output of the differential transformer 13 becomes lower than the comparison voltage V B of the comparator 15, and the comparator 1
The output of 5 becomes 1. Then, the monostable multivibrator (hereinafter referred to as OSM) 16 operates for a predetermined time, and the output of this OSM 16 becomes 1, passes through the inverting element 17, and closes the AND gate 18. At the initial stage when the electrode 1 reaches the set machining position, the shape of the electrode 1 causes the workpiece to
The depth of the upper machined hole is uneven, and the above OSM1
6, the electrode 1 moves upwards and the output of the comparator 15 becomes zero. For this reason
The output of AND gate 18 remains at zero. After a certain period of time has elapsed in this way, the time during which the electrode 1 remains at the set machining position gradually becomes longer due to the unevenness in the machining depth of the machining holes being eliminated. When that time exceeds the operating time of the OSM 16, the output of the AND gate 18 becomes 1, which acts as a machining end signal to the pulse current generator 3, and the series of operations ends.

If set to operate for a sufficient period of time, after part of the electrode 1 reaches the desired machining depth, all the remaining unmachined parts of the workpiece can be machined. Even when finishing is performed after rough machining, no rough-machined surfaces remain, and finishing accuracy can also be improved.

Here, in the above embodiment, the position of the differential transformer 13 is set to the position of the desired machining depth before machining, and the electrode movement time at that position is set. It is also possible to move the position of the transformer 13 in steps, in which case the set electrode movement time is
Of course, it also indicates the time during which the electrode revolves. Further, in the above embodiments, the shape of the revolution movement is circular, but it is obvious that the present invention can be applied to cases where movement of other shapes is performed.
