Effect of discharge accumulation on wire breakage in WEDM process

In recent years, WEDM has been adopted in precision machining as an important alternative machining method because of its greater flexibility and lower wear cost compared with traditional machining, whereas wire breakage during WEDM is an unignorable problem that influences the machining quality and...

After that, a wire breakage experiment was done and through locating the position of 50 discharges before wire breakage it is found that 34% of discharges were located within a range of 2 mm, and the minimum area in the wire cross-section only remained 41.88% compared with the original wire. This kind of decrease in the cross-section area made the stress higher than the UTS of the wire and caused the wire breakage.
