Abstract


Electro Chemical Micro Machining (ECMM) is an unconventional machining technique which is used in a large range of industries such as from medical to aero. This paper intends to go over the main points and some of the major parameters used in Electro Chemical Micro Machining which are going to affect Material Removal Rate (MRR), Dimensional Deviation or Over Cut (OC) and to review existing knowledge and draw attention to current challenges, restrictions and advantages in the field of ECMM.
