Abstract
A device and method for measuring and adjusting an electrode used during electrical discharge taper machining, referenced on three axes, Y and Y horizontal and Z vertical, whereas two linear geometric references, bottom and top, which may be intersected by a wire, each of them lying in a plane XY, the references being offset from one another in a direction XY by a sufficient distance to make it possible to insert a vertical electrode between the two without either of them being intersected by the wire, a base element serving as a support to the references and as an attachment stay on the work bed of the machine.
