Electrochemical machining (ECM) is an anodic dissolution process of metal as anode ion by ion, and micro-ECM is a promising micromachining method at micro to meso-scale. Thus, a micro-ECM setup was developed to fabricate micro parts and explore the feasibility of micro-ECM at micro to meso-scale, including the design of high-frequency micro-energy pulse power supply. By using the detection unit of machining state and optical encoder, a closed loop control system for micro-ECM was developed. Under low concentration of passivating electrolyte, low machining voltage, micro rotating electrode and high-frequency short-pulse current, the machining gap can be reduced to about 10μm.

Background: High-temperature alloy such as nickel-based alloy has become the main material for core components such as aero engines due to their high strength and good toughness. Therefore, it is of great significance to study how to improve the machining accuracy and stability of electrochemical machining (ECM) of deep small holes on the nickel-based alloy. The instantaneous high-density current during the pulse width of pulse ECM is beneficial to the dissolution of metal workpieces. Many experts and scholars have studied the pulse ECM of deep small holes. Objective: The purpose of this article is to propose and design a Positive And Negative Pulse (PANP) power supply to study the accuracy and stability of ECM of deep small holes on nickel-based alloys. Methods: First of all, an H-bridge composed of four MOSFET switches is designed to achieve PANP output in the main circuit of the power supply. Then, this paper studies the influence of the ratio of positive and negative pulses on short circuits, the influence of the ratio of positive and negative pulses on the mass removal rate, and the influence of the electrolyte concentration and pulse width on the mass removal rate. Finally, according to the obtained optimal parameters, the influence of electrolyte pressure on the average radial overcut of hole depth is analyzed. Results: The experimental results showed that the short-circuit frequency is reduced by more than 50% compared with non-negative pulse power supply; the ratio of positive and negative pulses, pulse width and electrolyte concentration and pressure were optimized by experiments to improve the mass removal rate of the workpiece and the average radial overcut of hole depth. Conclusion: The designed PANP power supply can improve the machining accuracy and stability of ECM of deep small holes on nickel-based alloys.

Electrochemical machining (ECM) has been rarely applied in micromachining because the electric field is not localized. In order to explore the feasibility of applying ECM to micromachining at micro to meso-scale, an experimental setup with precision control over electrochemical micromachining (EMM) was developed, which is in fact a multifunctional machine tool. The micro tool electrodes for EMM can also be fabricated by micro electrical discharge machining (EDM) on the same machine tool. A high-frequency short-pulse micro-energy MOSFET power supply was designed. Lower machining voltage and lower concentration of passivity electrolyte are utilized together to localize dissolution area in EMM. A micro hole 45 ,m in diameter was drilled by EMM on stainless steel foil with 100 μm thickness. A new approach of fabricating microstructures by means of EMM milling using a simple micro tool electrode is proposed, and a shaped hole and a micro cantilever beam with high precision were acquired by EMM milling. The satisfactory process results indicate the potential capability of EMM for higher machining accuracy and smaller machining size.

In this paper, a low-profile HF (high-frequency) meandered dipole antenna with a ferrite-loaded artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) is proposed. To operate in the HF band while retaining a compact size, ferrite with high permeability is applied to the unit cell of the AMC. The operating frequency bandwidth of the designed unit cell of the AMC is 1.89:1 (19–36 MHz). Thereafter, a meandered dipole antenna is designed by implementing a binary genetic algorithm and is combined with the AMC. The overall size of the designed antenna is 0.06×0.06×0.002 λ3 at the lowest operating frequency. The proposed dipole antenna with a ferrite-loaded AMC is fabricated and measured. The measured VSWR bandwidth (<3) covers 20–30 MHz on the HF band. To confirm the performance of the antenna, a reference monopole antenna which operates on the HF band was selected, and the measured receiving power is compared with the result of the proposed antenna with the AMC.
