A wire electrical-discharge machining (WEDM) machine tool for machining a disc-shaped porous part, comprising:

• a workbench,
• a central stand column arranged in a middle portion of the workbench,
• a first motor and a rotating gear for driving the disc-shaped porous part to rotate,
• a plurality of wire rack assemblies arranged on the workbench for machining, and
• a wire feeding mechanism for guiding a feeding direction of an electrode wire,
• wherein the plurality of wire rack assemblies are radially distributed around a center of the workbench, and each of the plurality of wire rack assemblies comprises a bottom plate, a radial driving mechanism arranged on the bottom plate and a wire rack fixed on a sliding block of the radial driving mechanism;
• and the wire rack is a “[”-shaped rack, and an opening of the “[”-shaped rack is oriented to the central stand column;
• and
• the wire feeding mechanism comprises a first guide wheel assembly (11) arranged on the workbench to guide the electrode wire into and out of a wire winding barrel, second guide wheel assemblies (121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126) arranged on the radial driving mechanism and the wire rack, a third guide wheel assembly (14) arranged on the central stand column and a fourth guide wheel assembly (15) arranged between two wire rack assemblies;
• and the electrode wire comes out of the wire winding barrel and passes through the first guide wheel assembly (11), and then passes through the second guide wheel assembly (121), and under guidance of the third guide wheel assembly (14) and the fourth guide wheel assembly (15), the electrode wire passes through the remaining second guide wheel assemblies (122, 123, 124, 125, 126) in sequence, and finally passes through the first guide wheel assembly to return to the wire winding barrel;
• wherein the radial driving mechanism comprises a second motor arranged on the bottom plate, a screw rod connected to the second motor, and a screw nut matched with the screw rod, the second motor is configured to drive the screw rod to rotate, so that the screw nut moves along an axis of the screw rod to drive the wire rack to move along the axis of the screw rod;
• the wire rack comprises a vertical arm, an upper arm connected to an upper end of the vertical arm and a lower arm connected to a lower end of the vertical arm;
• and each of the second guide wheel assemblies comprises a guide wheel arranged on the second motor, an upper guide wheel arranged at an end portion of the upper arm, and a lower guide wheel arranged at an end portion of the lower arm;
• six wire rack assemblies are provided, and the six wire rack assemblies respectively correspond to six stations:
• a station A, a station B, a station C, a station D, a station E, and a station F;
• the third guide wheel assembly (14) comprises a first set of steering guide wheels (141), a second set of steering guide wheels (142), and a third set of steering guide wheels (143);
• the first guide wheel assembly (11) comprises a wire inlet guide wheel (41) and a wire outlet guide wheel (48);
• and the fourth guide wheel assembly (15) comprises a first tensioning guide wheel (151) and a second tensioning guide wheel (152);
• and
• wherein when six uniformly distributed holes are machined, an included angle between two adjacent stations is 60 degrees;
• and a first specific wire feeding route of the electrode wire is that:
• the electrode wire comes out of the wire winding barrel, passes through the wire inlet guide wheel (41) to reach a guide wheel in the station A, is steered to a lower guide wheel in the station A, and then is fed upwardly to pass through an upper guide wheel in the station A to enter the first set of steering guide wheels (141) on the central stand column, and under guidance of the first set of steering guide wheels (141), the electrode wire enters an upper guide wheel in the station B, is fed downwardly to pass through a lower guide wheel in the station B, and then passes through a guide wheel in the station B;
• then, the electrode wire enters a guide wheel in the station C under guidance of the first tensioning guide wheel (151) to reach a lower guide wheel in the station C, and is fed upwardly to pass through an upper guide wheel in the station C to enter the second set of steering guide wheels (142) on the central stand column, and under guidance of the second set of steering guide wheels (142), the electrode wire enters an upper guide wheel in the station D, is fed downwardly to pass through a lower guide wheel in the station D, and then passes through a guide wheel in the station D;
• and then, the electrode wire enters a guide wheel in the station E under guidance of the second tensioning guide wheel (152) to reach a lower guide wheel in the station E, and is fed upwardly to pass through an upper guide wheel in the station E to enter the third set of steering guide wheels (143) on the central stand column, and under guidance of the third set of steering guide wheels (143), the electrode wire enters an upper guide wheel in the station F, is fed downwardly to pass through a lower guide wheel in the station F, then passes through a guide wheel in the station F, and finally passes through the wire outlet guide wheel (48) to return to the wire winding barrel.
