Dressing apparatus for an electrode tip

摘要

In an electrode tip dressing apparatus, a relatively weak pressure is applied on an electrode tip at the electrode setting, then a strong pressure is applied at finishing, and finally a lowered pressure is applied after a predetermined time period. The blade holder is provided with a clearance over the entire length of the blade for discharging the chips produced during machining of the electrode tip, thereby preventing blinding of blades caused by cutting chips.
