Abstract
A wire electric discharge machining apparatus wherein workpiece and a wire supported by a pair of guides are moved relative to each other in an X-axis direction and a Y-axis direction, one of the guides being moved relative to the other guide in two directions in a horizontal plane for performing a machining operation. The apparatus comprises the pair of guides, a frame, rails mounted on a column, a U-axis moving unit, and a V-axis moving unit. One of the guides is mounted on the frame. The V-axis moving unit on which the other guide is mounted is mounted movably on the U-axis moving unit in parallel with the Y-axis. The frame and the U-axis moving unit are arranged in alignment with the rails.
