Electro Chemical Machining (ECM) is a non-contact metal removal process that has been in use since the 1950s. It allows for high-precision machining of complex components without thermal or mechanical stress. Since the early 2000s, ECM technology has been continuously optimized across Europe, particularly through the use of advanced pulse current systems.
This procedure is currently being used successfully in medical technology, aviation industry as well as in special machinery.
MUNK pulse current devices for individual use
MUNK GmbH has decades of experience in the production of conventional DC high current devices as well as special reverse pulse current power supplies (AxD with VPC) for individual use which provide just the right solution for this process demand. Only technologies which have a dynamic performance, a sharp current increase as well as a graphic design of pulse patterns are suitable for Electro Chemical Machining (ECM) processes.
For ECM pulse applications, only technologies are suitable which, in addition to the graphic design of pulse patterns (software Windows-based), have an extremely steep current rise behavior and a very dynamic control behavior.
MUNK’s pulse device spectrum starts with a few mA and ranges up to 30 kA – depending on the process design.
