Patent number: 6184485Abstract: A method for solving the problem that the machining accuracy in a corner part or in a circular arc is reduced by the line flexure during the wire-cut electric discharge machining. In the method, the controller of the wire-cut electric discharge machine with a built-in function of measuring error of wire flexure, after the machining, a detection voltage of the machine detects the machined groove. If the wire electrode comes into contact with the workpiece, the short-circuit caused by the wire flexure in the corner part or in a circular arc is detected, and then the compensation value of the wire flexure is gradually changed to continue the groove detection until the wire electrode and the workpiece are not short-circuited and the groove detection stops. Then the wire flexure value in the corner part or in the circular arc is obtained to establish the machining parameter data of the machine to automatically compensate the wire flexure value in the following machining.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 1999Date of Patent: February 6, 2001Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Yea-June Day, Jui-Fang Liang, Cheng-Fu Tsai, Hsi-Pin Li, Mu-Tian Yan

Patent number: 5598075Abstract: Disclosed is a servo control method and apparatus for use on discharging machines to control the discharging conditions on working piece. In conventional art, feedrate control is based on the average of the discharging voltage between the discharging electrode and the working piece, which takes the off-time period into account; and in the condition of a long off-time period, the average voltage will be lowered as to affect the stability of the discharging process. The servo control method and apparatus according to the present invention disregards the off-time period and takes only the ignition voltage and discharging voltage into account such that the stability of the discharging machine will not be affected. Furthermore, during discharging, the servo control method and apparatus is capable of detecting whether there is a short-circuit condition and adjusting the average voltage accordingly so as to quickly remove the discharging electrode from the working piece.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1995Date of Patent: January 28, 1997Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Jui-Fang Liang, Hsing-Jung Chuang
