Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wire cutting equipment, in particular to a splash-proof liquid-cooled wire threading mechanism. Background Art

[0002] CNC wire cutting is a branch of EDM, which uses electrode wire (molybdenum wire, copper wire, galvanized wire) to cut the workpiece by spark discharge. In CNC wire cutting, the relative movement of the workpiece and the wire electrode is controlled by digital information. It is often used to process high-hardness materials, fine structures, complex shapes, high-precision dimensional parts, and high-surface quality parts.

[0003] CNC wire cutting machines are usually divided into three categories: fast wire cutting machines, medium wire cutting machines and slow wire cutting machines; taking fast wire cutting machines as an example, the wire electrode makes high-speed reciprocating motion, and the wire speed is 8m / s~10m / s. Its working principle is: the wire electrode passes through the pre-drilled small hole on the workpiece, and moves back and forth alternately through the guide wheel driven by the wire drum. The workpiece is installed on the conductive workbench through the insulating plate. The conductive workbench moves in the horizontal plane X and Y coordinate directions according to the given control program to synthesize any plane curve trajectory. The pulse power supply applies a pulse voltage to the wire electrode and the workpiece, the wire electrode is connected to the negative pole of the pulse power supply, and the workpiece is connected to the positive pole of the pulse power supply. When an electric pulse comes, a spark discharge is generated between the wire electrode and the workpiece. The temperature in the center of the discharge channel can instantly reach more than 10,000°C. The high temperature melts the metal of the workpiece, and even a small amount of it is vaporized. The high temperature also vaporizes part of the working fluid between the wire electrode and the workpiece. The vaporized working fluid and metal vapor instantly expand rapidly and have the characteristics of explosion. This thermal expansion and local micro-explosion will throw out the melted and vaporized metal materials to achieve electro-erosion cutting of the workpiece material.

[0004] A large amount of heat is generated during the wire cutting process, which needs to be cooled by coolant. Usually, coolant is sprayed on the top and bottom of the workpiece to one side of the workpiece. The coolant will form a water column along the electrode wire, and the two opposite water columns will splash at the intersection. Especially when the electrode wire moves from top to bottom, the intersection of the water columns will move downward, and the coolant will splash upward and outward, affecting the working environment around the machine tool.
