<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a die sinking electric discharge machining device capable of suppressing curving of an electrode and forming a thin hole with desired depth when the thin hole is formed using the linear electrode. <P>SOLUTION: The die sinking electric discharge machining device 1 includes: the linear electrode 50 having a longitudinal direction n; and a head 40 for supporting one end part of the electrode 50 and applies a voltage to a space between a workpiece W positioned at an electrode end part 55 side and the device 1. A periphery in the longitudinal direction n of the electrode 50 exposed from the head 40 is covered by a cylindrical protection member 60, and flexural rigidity of the protection member 60 is larger than that of the electrode 50. When at least the electrode 50 is curved, the protection member 60 is brought into contact with the electrode 50 to support the electrode 50. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
