Summary:1. Field of the Invention A wire cutting discharging machining device and the method thereof are disclosed. The method includes the steps of feeding a wire to be machined to a plurality of guide blocks; detecting one end of the wire and positioning the end; driving the plurality of guide blocks and a parallel device which is connected to the plurality of guide blocks and is operated synchronously so as to vertically guide the wire to an upper guide; and feeding the wire continuously to a workpiece, and a lower guide to a drawing roller. When in the process of machining, if a wire is broken abruptly or a machining path is to be updated, then a wire end detecting device, a wire cutting means, a wire end clamping device and a wire pressing device are used to achieve the object of wire modification.
