Title* Technology and equipment for electrodischarge machining aided by ultrasonics
Improves the main technological performances of micro-electrodischarge machining in terms of machining rate, precision, machined surface roughness
The invention deals with technology and equipment of finishing by electrodischarge machining of micro-holes aided by ultrasonic vibration of electrode-tool on longitudinal axis of micro-hole after previous rough machining by pulse laser.
◙ Finishing technology of microholes, previously machined by pulsed laser, by electrodischarge machining aided by ultrasonic longitudinal vibrations of electrode-tool:
◙ Adjusting device of electrode-tool guide: rotation around horizontal axis on spherical surfaces, and rough and fine translation on vertical axis;
◙ Multiple guiding of electrode-tool, by superior and inferior bushing, prismatic surfaces and elastic elements.
◙ Electrode-tool clamping in antinode point by triple jaws and screwed nut;
◙ Dielectric lateral flushing through inferior bushing and interior flushing in case of tubular tools by a nozzle that enters the horn in nodal point.
◙ High machining rate and surface quality due to ultrasonically induced cavitation within working gap and tool guiding through bushings set;
◙ High quality of electrode-tool guiding in terms of position and shape precision;
◙ Efficient clamping and flushing of electrode-tool.
