Provided is an insertion guide that performs accurate rotation correction between a shaft and a hole and phase correction between the shaft and hole. The shaft includes: a first guide portion at a distal end of the shaft having a diameter smaller than a diameter of the hole; a second guide portion, provided on a base end side of a first narrow cylindrical portion, and having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the hole and larger than a diameter of the first narrow cylindrical portion; and a third guide portion, provided at the distal end of the shaft, and is a recessed portion to be engaged with a protruding portion formed in the hole. The shaft being inclined with respect to the hole, is brought into contact with the hole at two points or less before the third guide portion is brought into contact with the protruding portion.

Insertion guide and insertion guide device

A mirror replacement device includes a gripping mechanism to grip a segment mirror, a fine drive mechanism to change a position and a posture of the gripping mechanism, a lift mechanism for the segment mirror, a first detector to detect a relative position and a relative posture between a comparison object and a target object, a second detector to detect a bend of the fine drive mechanism, and a mirror replacement controller to replace the segment mirror based on detection signals output from the above-mentioned detectors. The controller determines whether the first detector can successfully perform a measurement. When it is determined that the measurement can be successfully performed, the control is performed based on the detection signal output from the first detector. When it is determined that the measurement cannot be successfully performed, the control is performed based on the detection signal output from the second detector.

A control device includes an interpolar average machining voltage detection unit that detects an interpolar average machining voltage between an electrode and a workpiece, an interpolar average machining voltage correction unit that corrects the detected interpolar average machining voltage, a machining speed control unit that calculates a machining speed of the electrode based on the difference between the set voltage, which is set in advance as a target value of the interpolar average machining voltage, and the corrected interpolar average machining voltage, and a drive control device that controls a machining speed of the electrode based on the calculated machining speed. The interpolar average machining voltage correction unit corrects the detected interpolar average machining voltage based on a difference between the calculated machining speed and the set speed, which is set in advance as a target value of the machining speed.

Control device for wire electric discharge machine and control method for wire electric discharge machine

An electric discharge machining apparatus includes a power supply, an electrode gap formed from an electrode and a workpiece, a current limiting resistor connected between the power supply and the electrode gap, switching elements that turns on and off application of a voltage from the power supply to the electrode gap, an inductance element connected in series between the switching elements and the electrode gap, and a control unit that controls the switching elements. The control unit causes the switching elements to perform ON/OFF operations according to a switching pattern having an on-pulse time width (&#x394;Ton) in which a voltage of the electrode gap can reach a voltage value of the power supply in an on-pulse time and a pause time width (&#x394;Toff) equal to or longer than a time width (&#x394;tic) of a discharge current flowing during the capacitor discharge and shorter than a cycle (&#x394;Tso) of the self-excited oscillation.

Electric discharge machining apparatus

An electric discharge machining apparatus of the present invention includes a power supply, an electrode gap configured so as to be formed by an electrode and a workpiece, and an earth floating-capacitance current-suppressing coil configured to be inserted between the power supply and the electrode gap. Accordingly, the impedance in the charging path from the power supply to an interelectrode capacitance (an interelectrode parallel capacitor and an interelectrode parallel floating capacitance) can be decreased, and the impedance in the charging path to an earth floating capacitance can be increased, thereby enabling the electric current from the earth floating capacitance during discharge machining to be suppressed.
