Abstract

See full text

This fine hole electrical discharge machine applies voltage between a fine hole machining electrode and a workpiece to cause discharge, and machines a fine hole in the workpiece by using energy of the discharge. The fine hole electrical discharge machine comprises: a bendable guide tube having a hollow portion through which the electrode is inserted; and a tube holder that supports the leading end of the guide tube and allows the leading end of the guide tube to be inclined at a desired angle. Thus, even when the workpiece has a complicated shape, like a blisk, having a large number of turbine blades arranged in the circumferential direction, a fine hole can be machined by accurately positioning the electrode so as to orient the electrode toward a target machining point on a surface of the workpiece without involving interference with the workpiece.
