Abstract

Provided is an electrochemical machining apparatus, which includes an electrode (3) that form of a shape which a tube shape is extended, including a flexible conductive material, and is which an electrolyte (W) circulates from a base end side (3b) thereof toward a distal end side (3a) thereof, a current supply unit (6) that causes electric current to flow with respect to the electrode (3) in an extending direction (direction running the Y direction) in which the electrode (3) extends, and a magnetic field generation unit (7) that includes at least one pair of magnets (9) which are disposed to face the electrodes (3) a direction and apply a magnetic field in a direction (X direction) intersecting the extending direction with respect to the electrodes (3).
