Micro groove structure with multi-station combination electrode by EDM
As a complex micro groove cavity made of mold steel with high hardness is difficult to be machined
a kind of electrical discharge machining method by use of a multi-station combination electrode is proposed. The cavity for micro fluidic chip molding is selected as researched object
NAK80 as the cavity material
and copper-tungsten alloy (75%W) as the material of the corresponding electrode with a micro convex structure manufactured by High Speed Milling(HSM). To reduce processing difficulty and ensure processing quality
the complex micro convex structure is decomposed into two groups of four-station combination electrodes. By alternating peripheral milling and end milling
the surface of the micro convex structure generates continuous plastic deformation
which reduces and removes the top processing burr of the micro convex structure and the burr can be reduced and removed. Finally
based on the qualified multi-station combination electrode
the rough
semi-finishing and finish machinings are completed successively by using precision Electrical Discharge Machining(EDM) and transforming the electrode station instead of changing electrodes. Experimental results show that the verticality of the groove sidewall is good enough
the height and width errors are within 3 μm
the root radius is within 15 μm
and all this satisfies the demand of micro fluidic chip molding.
