Abstract
A method and apparatus of operating a wirecut electrical discharge machine for cutting a workpiece using a generated electrical discharge in a machining gap wherein the workpiece is opposing a wire electrode. The method comprises the steps of presetting a plurality of machining conditions in accordance with dielectric pressure and machined plate thickness combinations, storing the preset machining conditions in a memory, and automatically setting an optimum machining condition based on detected dielectric pressures and the machined plate thickness calculated in a numerical controller. The machined plate thickness may be calculated by dividing an area machining feedrate corresponding to present electrical condition parameters by the actual machining feedrate.
