2. Description of the Related Art In general, in a wire electric discharge machine, in a servo feed system, a voltage servo feed system that distributes a machining feed speed proportional to a difference voltage between a gap voltage and a reference voltage has been used. In this servo feed system, if the difference voltage between the gap voltage and the reference voltage is small, the machining feed speed is slow, and if the difference voltage between the gap voltage and the reference voltage is large, the machining feed speed is fast. Therefore, at the moment when the wire electrode passes through the corner portion, for example, at the time of machining the corner portion of the machining shape, the machining gap becomes very large temporarily, so that the machining feed speed increases rapidly.

However, in the above-described voltage servo feed method, for example, when machining a corner portion of a machining shape, a temporary machining gap becomes very large at the moment when the corner is turned.
Although the processing feed speed is rapidly increased, there is a delay in response characteristics of a driving system of a processing table including a driving actuator such as a motor. Therefore, according to the command of machining feed rate,
The drive system cannot respond instantaneously, and a delay time always occurs.

Therefore, even if the machining feed rate command suddenly increases, the drive system of the machining table starts moving after a certain time, that is, after a certain delay time, and conversely, the machining gap becomes narrower.
Even if the machining feed speed command suddenly decreases, the wire electrode and the workpiece come into contact because the machining table continues to advance relatively, and finally, it cannot be retracted immediately even if a retraction command is issued. As a result, a turbulent state occurs, resulting in so-called unstable machining.

The control method and the control device of the wire electric discharge machining according to the present invention are configured as described above, and have the following effects. That is, the present invention relates to a wire electric discharge machine for applying an inter-electrode voltage between a wire electrode and a workpiece to perform electro-discharge machining on the workpiece, in which a machining feed rate is determined based on a difference voltage between the inter-electrode voltage and a reference voltage. And the machining conditions are changed in accordance with the magnitude of the difference voltage, and the reference voltage is controlled so as to be temporarily changed so that the difference voltage approaches zero as much as possible. When there are corners and the like of the bent portion and the bent portion, in the machining of the corners and the like, the difference voltage between the gap voltage and the reference voltage is kept almost constant so that the machining feed speed is kept constant. Thus, the machining gap can be made uniform, stable machining accuracy can be obtained, and the shape error can be minimized. Therefore, a desired machining shape is obtained for the workpiece,
High precision processing can be realized.
