A control system to improve the efficiency of machining a workpiece with varying thickness in the wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) process is proposed. The abnormal ratioRabdefined by the proportion of abnormal sparks in a sampling period is taken as the controlled variable. It is allowed to reduce temporarily as the cutting thickness is changing. A gain self-tuning fuzzy control algorithm is used so that the transient situation as the cutting thickness is suddenly increasing can be suppressed immediately, and a stable performance can be achieved. In addition, the grey predictor is adopted to compensate the time-delayedRabcaused by the low-pass filter data processing. Experiments reveal that there is a slight variance in the optimal reference ofRabwhen the cutting thickness is larger than 20 mm, and its value is set to 55% in these cases. Three cases were tested: the constant machining parameters, the constantRaband the proposed adaptiveRab. The results show that the cutting speed can be obviously improved by the proposed control strategy.
