Electrochemical Machining Process Using Different Electrolytes for Improved Process Efficiency

Abstract

Electrochemical machining (ECM) was developed as a result of the manufacturing and production industry's need to cut extremely hard alloys without leaving a troublesome layer. Manufacturing industries involved in gas turbine blades and aerospace need intricate geometries that would be difficult to make using standard methods. Because of high tool wear (TW) and metal removal rate (MRR), traditional machining processes such as milling and other conventional machining are inefficient for extracting metal from hard materials. This study outlines, a comprehensive analysis of the ECM processes using different electrolytes for better process efficiency.
