Electrical discharge machining with the application of the conductive laser channels

摘要

The method of the electrical discharge machining (EDM) with the application of the solid metal wire electrode-tools (WET) is known. The wear of the WET and limits of the values of the current and the tension force are the disadvantages of the EDM method. The EDM with the application of the conductive laser channel (CLC) as an electrode-tool is offered. The equivalent electric scheme of the electroerosive cell with two plasma channels: CLC and electrical discharge, is considered. The distribution of the heat in the workpiece after the current pulse passing through electroerosive cell is studied. The experimental research of the EDM process with the use of the CLC as an electrode-tool are carried out.
