Abstract
A wire electric discharge machine is provided with an automatic wire-connection pipe movable between an automatic wire connection position and a retracted position. A pickup unit configured to clamp a wire electrode to be cut is disposed below a wire cutting electrode on the outlet side of the automatic wire-connection pipe. The wire electric discharge machine is further provided with a stopper mechanism configured to regulate a movement of the automatic wire-connection pipe so that a distal end of a nozzle of the automatic wire-connection pipe is located between the wire cutting electrode and the pickup unit when the wire electrode is cut.
