Abstract
The present disclosure provides an electrochemical machining apparatus including a pressurized tank, a cap, a stabilizing plate, a guiding element, and an electrode. The pressurizing tank has a top surface and a chamber, wherein the top surface is disposed with an opening and a limiting portion. The cap fits in the opening and is limited by the limiting portion to seal the pressurized tank. The stabilizing plate is spaced from the top surface or the cap by a distance. The guiding element penetrates the stabilizing plate to connect with the cap and provides a channel to the chamber. The electrode is guided by the guiding element and penetrates the chamber via the channel. When the electrode processes a workpiece in the chamber during an electrochemical machining operation, the cap takes a pressure generated during the electrochemical machining operation, and the stabilizing plate stabilizes the electrode and the guiding element.
