Abstract

This paper conducted slot-cutting of wire-EDM 304 stainless steel to investigate the effect of wire-tool speed on kerf quality. The special trajectory of wire-electrode was designed like the letter L, and the width of kerf at the five points in one group was measured with optical image measuring instrument tin experiments. The experiments results showed that the wire-electrode speed of 0.10m/s can generate the optimal kerf quality on the whole length of slot, and the width difference along the kerf is not ignored expect the wire-electrode speed of 0.10m/s. the conclusions can help to simplify the determination of processing parameters in WEDM application when required precision surface quality of product.
