Abstract
An electrical discharge state detecting device for an electrical discharge machining machine which detects an electrical discharge state during an electrical discharge machining operation. The detecting device includes a high-pass filter for detecting a high-frequency component superimposed on an electrical discharge voltage or an electrical discharge current at a machining clearance between an electrode and a workpiece, a rectifying circuit for outputting a rectified component of the high-frequency component, a first integration circuit for integrating the rectified component, a reference voltage circuit, a second integrating circuit for integrating the reference voltage, a comparator for comparing the two integrated values, an electrical discharge generation detecting circuit for controlling starting and ending of the integrating circuits, a logic circuit, and a delay circuit and reset circuits.
