METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DISCHARGE MACHINING CONTROL.

摘要

A gap condition detector (3) detects a discharge machining condition of the gap between a tool electrode (1) and a work (2). The difference between this detection value Vg and a target value Vs is multiplied by axial components of a direction vector a in a retreating direction so as to obtain retreat speed command V2x to V2z. These values are added to speed commands V1x to V1z obtained by position loop control to obtain speed commands for speed loop control, and servo-motors (6x to 6z) are driven to regulate the gap described above. The retreat speed commands V2x to V2z are integrated by integrators (10x to 10z) to obtain the displacement of the tool when the speed commands are corrected. This displacement is added to the movement command inputted to the position loop, so as not to lose track of the tool. <IMAGE>
