Tungsten carbide microshaft is used as micro punch, electrode of micro electro discharge machining, and micro tool because of its high hardness and rigidity. In this research, tungsten carbide microshaft was fabricated using electrochemical machining. $H_2SO_4$ solution was used as the electrolyte because it can dissolve tungsten carbide and cobalt simultaneously. Experimentally studied were the effects of electrolyte concentration, machining time, and machining voltage on material removal rate and the shape of the microshaft. To eliminate the effects of bubbles and metal corrosion layer on microshaft shape, the machining was performed below the electrolysis voltage. Three step electrochemical process was suggested to fabricate the straight tungsten carbide microshaft. As a result, a straight tungsten carbide microshaft of $30{\mu}m$ in diameter and $500{\mu}m$ in length was obtained through the proposed three step electrochemical process.

In this paper, the electro-chemical-machining characteristics of Ni-Ti Shape Memory Alloy(SMA) was investigated. From the experimental results, the optimal electro chemical machining conditions for satisfying the machining quality(fine surface & high recovery stress) might be confirmed. And it was concluded that optical electro chemical condition for Ni-Ti SMA could be obtained at approximately 100% current efficiency and high frequency pulse current.

The electro-refining process was performed to purify the casted tin crude metal from waste tin in methanesulfonic acid. The surface morphologies of electrodeposited tin on cathode were observed, the dendrite and delamination were inhibited by glycol group of organic additive. The impurity concentrations of tin crude metal and deposited metal were analyzed using ICP-OES. Quantitative analysis on casted tin crude metal showed that it consists of tin with 97.280 wt.% and several impurity metals of Ag, Cu, Pb, Ni, and etc. After tin electro-refining, the purity of tin increased up to 99.956 wt.%. Reduction current by cyclic voltammetry seems to be closely related to behavior of impurity in tin electro-refining.

미세 전극을 이용한 미세 방전 가공이나, 미세 전해 가공은 다른 가공 방법에 비해 상대적으로 가공속도가 느리고 전극을 이송시키면서 한 번에 한 개의 형상 가공을 하므로 생산성이 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 하지만 다수의 미세 전극을 이용하여 다수의 형상을 동시에 가공함으로써 이러한 단점을 극복할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 미세 역방전(micro reverse electro-discharge machining, micro REDM)을 이용하여 한 개의 벌크 전극에 여러 개의 미세 전극을 제작한 뒤 전해 가공을 이용하여 다수의 구멍을 동시에 가공할 수 있는 프로세스에 대하여 연구하였다.(중략)

Electrochemical discharge machining (ECDM) has been found to be potential fur the micro-machining of non-conductive materials such as ceramics or glass. However this machining process has its own inherent problem that the reproducibility is too low to get the available geometric accuracy fur micromachining applications. One main challenge in reaching this goal is the control of the hydrogen built around the tool-electrode in which happen the discharges. This paper proposes the methods to improve the geometric accuracy using powder-mixed ECDM process. The experimental results show the effects of powder producing improved geometric accuracy by averaging and decreasing the concentration of spark energy.

Magnetic abrasive polishing is an advanced deburring process for nonmagnetic materials and micropattern products that have non-machinability characteristics. Despite these advantages, there are some problems with using MAP for deburring. MAP has introduced geometric errors into microgrooves because of an over-cutting force caused by uncontrolled magnetic abrasives in the MAP tool. Thus, in this study, to solve this problem, an EP (electrolyte polishing)-MAP hybrid polishing process was developed for deburring microgrooves in an STS316 material. In addition, an evaluation of EP-MAP for the deburring of microgrooves was carried out by profiling the burrs. The results of the experiment showed geometric errors after the deburring process using MAP. However, in the case of EP-MAP, no geometric error was observed after the process because of the lower material removal rate in EP-MAP.
