Abstract: The present invention relates to an automatic doffing operation. Conventionally if in spite of a failure in a yarn drawing-out operation, a yarn hooking operation is performed and an empty bobbin is uselessly supplied, an operator is thus forced to remove the bobbin. The present invention includes a full-package taking-out operation step of taking a bobbin (17) with a package (6) out of a cradle, a yarn drawing-out operation step of using a yarn drawing-out device (20) to start drawing out a spun yarn and then catching the spun yarn, and a yarn hooking operation step of supplying an empty bobbin (17) to the cradle and hooking the spun yarn on the bobbin (17) to return a doffing operation to an initial state. If the yarn fails to be caught during the yarn drawing-out operation step, a reverse returning step is executed instead of the yarn hooking operation step to reversely rotate a motor to return the doffing operation to its initial state without executing the yarn hooking operation step.

Abstract: A wire electric discharge machine capable of taper machining with an improved accuracy. A reference wire correction amount d set in advance is determined to be a proper value for a wire-diameter correction amount for a speed control plane, and adjustment amounts for adjusting the reference wire correction amount for the upper and lower surfaces of a workpiece are determined to be proportional to (1-Lu/Lm) and (1-Ll/Lm), respectively, where Lu, Lm and L1 are machining distances at the upper surface, speed control plane and lower surface, respectively. As a proportionality coefficient, a reference adjustment amount e is set in advance. Using adjustment amounts e(1-Lu/Lm) and e(1-Ll/Lm), wire-diameter correction amounts for the workpiece upper and lower surfaces are determined to be d+e(1-Lu/Lm) and d+e(1-Ll/Lm). When a workpiece setting table and upper and lower wire guides are driven, axes are controlled so that a wire electrode follows, on the workpiece upper and lower surfaces, paths shifted by the wire-diameter amounts, respectively.
