Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire EDM technology, and more specifically to a wire EDM cleaning device. Background Technology
[0002] Wire EDM is a specialized machining technology that uses a continuously moving fine metal wire as a tool electrode to etch and cut conductive materials through pulsed spark discharge. Wire EDM can achieve micron-level precision and surface roughness control within Ra0.8μm. It requires no secondary processing and, due to its non-contact machining characteristics, is particularly adept at machining thin plates, complex curved surfaces, and intricately shaped holes, making it irreplaceable in high-end manufacturing fields such as precision molds and aerospace.
[0003] In existing wire EDM processes, a large amount of metal debris is generated and mixed with the coolant. Typically, gravity or low-pressure permeation is used to force the mixture passively through a planar filter or mesh medium to achieve solid-liquid separation. This filtration method is inefficient, requires frequent shutdowns to clean the filter, is cumbersome to maintain, and reduces production efficiency. Therefore, we propose a wire EDM cleaning device to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. This utility model uses a water pump to draw a mixture of metal scraps and coolant from inside the cooling tank into a separation tank through two drain pipes in the tank body. The separation motor drives the rotating drain pipe to rotate, which in turn drives two filter plates to actively filter the mixture. The coolant flows through the filter plates into the bottom inlet pipe, where it is separated from the metal scraps, thus improving the filtration efficiency.

This effectively avoids metal scraps clogging the filter plates, avoids downtime maintenance, and saves costs. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The separation motor 6 is fixedly connected to the separation tank 4. The output end of the separation motor 6 passes through the separation tank 4 and is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating drain pipe 701. The rotating drain pipe 701 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the separation tank 4. The two fan-shaped filter pipes 702 are rotatably connected to the inside of the separation tank 4 respectively.
