WEDM is a precision special processing machine,and the processing precision is very high,which can be used to process a variety of special hard materials.However,its processing time is more than that of the conventional way.Then the condition monitoring is very necessary.According to the numerical control system of existing domestic middle speed wire electric discharge machine (MSWEDM),two kinds of integrated monitoring mode were put forward.Combining embedded technology,artificial intelligence,network and mobile terminal programming and database technology,the intelligent telemonitoring system of MSWEDM was designed.First,the overall framework of the intelligent remote monitoring system was described;secondly,the core functions of the intelligent remote monitoring system and its key technology were described in detail;at last,the two kinds of integrated monitoring mode were highlighted,specially the image recognition method based on artificial intelligence technology.The intelligent remote monitoring system of MSWEDM can not only provide convenience for the machine tool operator,but also can provide support for the machine maintenance personnel to solve machine fault.
