Electrochemical machining (ECM) is a method of removing metal by an electrochemical process. It is normally used for mass production and is used for working extremely hard materials or materials that are difficult to machine using conventional methods. Its use is limited to electrically conductive materials. ECM can cut small or odd-shaped angles, intricate contours or cavities in hard and exotic metals, such
Flow International Corporation has selected Renishaw HS10 and HS20 laser encoders for use on the company's Composites Machining Center (CMC). These deliver part per million accuracy on X axis motion during week long machining cycles on composite panels up
