Abstract: An electrical machining (e.g. EDM) apparatus having a worktank for containing a machining liquid and having a workpiece immersed therein; and a tool electrode positionable to be juxtaposed with the workpiece in the worktank to define an electrical machining gap therebetween filled with the machining liquid. The apparatus includes an ultrasonic assembly disposed in the worktank and comprises a head member and a support member. The head member is constituted by a housing having an ultrasonic transducer element supported therein and an opening for permitting only one of the two opposite surfaces of the transducer element to be held in contact with the machining liquid and to communicate with the region of the machining gap via the machining liquid. The head member is supported in the worktank by the support member, which may include a flexible multi-joint pipe or linkage, so that the opening is directed selectively towards the region of the machining gap. The transducer is energized by a power supply to provide ultrasonic vibrations, preferably in excess of 50 kHz and up to 10 MHz, which are transmitted by the machining liquid preferentially to the machining gap region.

Abstract: An EDM method and apparatus for supplying successive trains of discrete elementary machining pulses to an EDM gap wherein a high-frequency AC power generally of the frequency of the discrete elementary machining pulses is generated in a high-frequency generating unit disposed remote from the machining gap. The power is transmitted directly in the unrectified AC form along a feeder cable to the proximity of the machining gap whereat a switching rectifier is provided connected to a tool electrode and workpiece across the machining gap via respective conductors of a minimum length. The rectifier operates to cyclically interrupt the transmitted high-frequency AC while concurrently rectifying same, thereby providing successive trains of the discrete elementary machining pulses for direct application across the EDM gap. A discharge state sensor is also disposed in the direct proximity of the gap for sensing the discharge characteristics occurring in the EDM operation a pulser provides a control signal which acts on pulsing for the switching rectifier to modify the cyclic interruption of the transmitted AC and to control production of the successive trains of elementary discharge pulses.

Abstract: An improved servo system and method in an EDM machine for controlling the relative electrode displacement or the gap spacing between a tool electrode and a workpiece, wherein the electrodes are brought to a machining position to permit a succession of electrical discharges to be developed therebetween across the machining gap. A counter is used to count the number of machining pulses and, when the number reaches a value preset in conjunction with the machining area defined by the confronting electrodes, to provide an "advance" or "advance-enabling" signal. Only upon development of this signal or concurrent development of it and a usual servo "advance" signal from a gap sensor/servo signal generator responsive to a gap variable, e.g. gap voltage, a servo drive circuit acting on a motor or actuator for driving the movable electrode is actuated to allow the electrode to be advanced or stepped forward to a next machining position. The preset level of the discharge counter is varied from one value to another in response to a change in the machining area, setting or gap condition during the course of the machining operation.

Abstract: In an EDM method, a continuous wire electrode with an original radius is continuously transported through a machining zone of a workpiece. The machining zone is flushed with a liquid while a succession of electrical machining current pulses are passed between the electrode and the workpiece. Because of these machining pulses, discharge craters with raised formations are formed on the wire electrode. The method includes the step of controlling at least one parameter of the electrical machining current pulses so that the radius of the wire electrode at the location of the raised formations does not exceed the original radius of the wire electrode.
