Surface Integrity of Electrochemical Machining

摘要

The report describes the general range of effects of electrochemical machining (ECM) on aerospace materials. The general effects from both 'standard' or 'off-standard' operating conditions are depicted. The effect on material properties includes a review of available fatigue data. General guidelines are given along with a detailed bibliography for further study. Post treatment effects are described in relation to conventional machining as well as to ECM. (Author)
