Caustic soda
Hydrochloric acid
Nitric acid
Iron chloride
Determine the tool shape, so that the desired shape of the job is obtained under existing
machining condition
Design the tool by considering the electrolyte flow, insulation strength and fixing
arrangement
It cools the cutting zone which becomes hot due to the flow of high current

14. What are the materials used for tools in electrochemical machining?
Most commonly used tool materials are copper, brass, titanium, and copper-tungsten and
stain less steel when the electrolyte is made of sodium or potassium
The other materials it can be used as tool materials are aluminum, graphite, bronze,
platinum and tungsten carbide
15. What are the process parameters of electro chemical machining?
Current density
High surface finish of the order 0.2 to 0.8 microns can be obtained

Tool design is very complicated and it requires cut and try method to achieve the final
shape
Post machining cleaning is needed to reduce the corrosion of the work piece
As compared to conventional grinding, a very little cutting force is applied to the work
piece.
