Microtools fabrication

Generally, initial investment of process design and microtool fabrication is low. Running cost and tooling costs are also low. 

Ultrasonic vibrations and vibrations with a low frequency have also been used during electrochemical machining with flowing electrolytes but not with microtool fabrications at a stagnant electrolyte. For all those investigations of microtool fabrications, the times of machining of microtools were considerably high. Transient cavitation phenomena result in the increase in the convective mass...
