| Abstract: | A new method of ultrasonic vibration electrical discharge machining(UEDM) in gas is proposed in this paper. In UEDM in gas, the gap between tool electrode and workpiece is small(about 0.01mm), and the voltage between them is higher than EDM in liquid, so short circuit is easy to take place. It is very important for improving the MRR to avoid short circuit. Therefore, some measures have been taken, a rotation and a planetary motion are superimposed upon the tool electrode. During UEDM in gas, workpiece is vi... |
