Premises for Experimental Research of the Electrochemical Machining

Abstract:

The electrochemical machining method ensures conditions for machining workpieces made of electroconductive materials, when the classical machining methods could not be applied or when their use is not able to offer a high efficiency of the machining process. The large diversity of the electrochemical machining procedures needs information about the specific work conditions and adequate establishing of the parameters which characterize the machining process and the factors able to exert influence on the parameters of technological interest. In order to design and materialize some electrochemical machining procedures, an analysis of the conditions specific to the work zone and of distinct subsystems specific to electrochemical equipment was developed. Taking into consideration the results of analysis, equipment for electrochemical machining was designed and materialized. One considered also some possibilities to develop subsequently scientific researches concerning aspects specific to the electrochemical machining process. Preliminary tests proved the possibilities of using the equipment and of its improving in the future.
