Explain Principal Process for Electro Chemical Machining

It is also called electrolytic machining or anodic cutting.
This process is quite commonly used for shaping hard metal or re-sharpening of cementing carbide cutting tools.

This process is based on principal of faraday and ohm.
In this process an electrolyte cell is formed by the work piece (anode) and tool (cathode) in the midst of a flowing electrolyte in a very small gap of 0.025cm.
The metal removal is due to the ion migration towards the tool. The tool is provided with a passage for circulating the electrolyte with sufficient velocity to flush off the metallic ions from the cutting zone. The work is generally kept stationary and the tool is fed in a linear direction.
The electrolyte used is generally an aqueous solution. This process is ideally suitable for the production of deep holes.
