“…It is interesting to find out that ECDM process with reverse polarities experienced high machining rate due to chemical reactions. In addition to micro-drilling of glass by ECDM, the machining of micro-channels on glass, 53,54 surface texturing, 55 three-dimensional (3D) micro structuring of glass 56 have also been attempted by different researchers.…”

Electrochemical discharge machining has been proved to be efficient micro-machining process and significantly used for the machining of non-conductive materials. The miniaturized products have gained advantages in Lab-on-a-chip devices and microelectromechanical system because of advancement in technology. The challenge to produce micro features has been suitably addressed by electrochemical discharge machining and emerged as potential contender in generating micro holes and micro channels on electrically non-conductive materials. This article includes state-of-art review on different domains of electrochemical discharge machining, which includes work piece, electrolyte, behaviour of tool electrode, gas film formation, machining quality along with recent hybridizations in electrochemical discharge machining process. The conclusion focuses or summarizes the future research trends for enhancement of electrochemical discharge machining efficiency and tackles problems encountered in machining.

“…The electrical and 2D machining characteristics of ECDM process was utilized and used a dynamic cylindrical tool electrode to improve the machining performances. At 40% KOH electrolyte concentration with 0.5mm tool immersion depth critical current up to 0.9 ampere and critical voltage increased if tool diameter was increased [23]. The effects of applied voltage, electrolyte concentration and inter electrode gap on material removal rate, machining depth, overcut and heat affected zone was studied and showed applied voltage has important role to increase the machining depth [24].…”
