Research Abstract |
This study aism to generate a functional surface on a work piece or on the surface of structural elements by electrical discharge machining in whch discharges are forced to disperse. In order to disperse discharges, a doped silicon plate is used as an elctrode or silicon powder mixed oil is used as working fluid. Bundled wires are also used as the electrode for the discharge dispersion. Crack less fine surface is realized on the work piece by means of those methods. Furthermore, a thin wire electrode or a green compact electrode is used for materials accretion on a work piece. The surfaces machined with these electrodes especially with a silicon electrode have remarkable corrosion resistance. The hardness of the modified surface by a TiC green compact electrode gets more than 2000Hv and it has high wear resistance in cutting process. Some end effecters with inch worm mechanism are developed for electrical discharge machining by use of a robot or traditional machine tools. Dot matrix type machining unit with several thin wires are used for rapid prototyping process. Millimeter order crack less machining is realized by adequate pulse distribution onto each thin wire. It has been confirmed that the surface of a cold forging die or a cutting tool edge can be modified by these methods in practical processes.
