Abstract
A wire electrical discharge machining system includes: an electrode motion control unit for moving a wire electrode while keeping the wire electrode parallel to Z-axis and bring the wire electrode into contact with a reference piece, and moving the wire electrode while keeping the wire electrode inclined with respect to the Z-axis and bring the wire electrode into contact with the reference piece; an electrode position acquiring unit for acquiring a position of the wire electrode in an XYZorthogonal coordinate system when the wire electrode touches the reference piece; a piece position acquiring unit for acquiring a piece position of the reference piece in an XYZorthogonal coordinate system when the wire electrode touches the reference piece; and a relative positional relationship calculator for calculating a coordinate system relative positional relationship, based on the acquired positions.
