Abstract
The excursion (a) of a wire electrode (10) is held constant at a pre-set value during the machining operation. The forward feed rate of an X/Y drive (24), the pulse frequency of the machining pulse or a combination of both these erosion parameters are preferably selected as a regulated quantity for effecting the wire excursion (a).
