Abstract
An apparatus for an electrochemical discharge machining process is provided. The apparatus includes a holder housing having, an inlet hole, an outlet hole, a first side, and a second side, and containing an electrolyte, a tool holder disposed at the first side, and a first electrode having a first end and a second end. The holder housing is configured to sealingly accommodate the electrolyte unless at least one of the inlet hole and the outlet hole is open. The first end is coupled to the tool holder and the second end passes through the second side. Since the apparatus is moved to a machining position of the work-piece by a worker, additional power for controlling the position thereof is not necessary. In addition, the apparatus is easy to carry and use because of its simple structure.
