Study on the Wear in the EDM Based on the Field Emission Theory

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the analysis of the sputtering power of field-emission electrons which hit on the end surface of positive electrode, the wear mechanism of electrode materials was studied during positive EDM process The theoretical prediction equations of maximum and minimum electrode wear rate were deduced respectively in this paper.
