In order to automatically process ultra-fine copper tube electrodes, this study proposes a new method of ultrasonic vibration processing of ultra-fine copper tube, analyzes its processing principle, designs a new set of experimental processing equipment and completes the processing of 1.206 mm inner diameter, 1.276 mm outer diameter with core brass tube. Not only can the copper tube be completed with core decoring, the surface of the processed brass tube electrode also has good integrity. The effect of each machining parameter on the surface roughness of the electrode after machining was investigated by a single-factor experiment and the optimal machining effect was achieved under the conditions of machining gap 0.1 mm, ultrasonic amplitude 0.186 mm, table feed speed 6 mm/min, tube rotation speed 1000 r/min and reciprocating machining two times. The surface roughness was reduced from 1.21 μm before machining to 0.11 μm, and the residual pits, scratches and oxide layer on the surface were completely removed, which greatly improved the surface quality of the brass tube electrode and prolonged its service life.
