Popis: This study investigate the machining operation perform by the combination of EDM and ECM process. Since in case of EDM the surface finish obtain is not as good as required so next machining operation is done by ECM. As we have, in EDM metal is removed from the workpiece through spark erosion and in ECM metal removed by anodic dissolution in the electrolyte. Both the process is done simultaneously in single machine changing the potential on anode and cathode and the medium. The EDM surface of 1μ mm Ra is improved to 0.2μ mm Ra by applying ECM. The surface roughness of a machined hole is improved to 0.07 mm Ra by applying 2 min of ECM lapping. Both the process is done simultaneously.
