ELECTROLYTE CHAMBER WITH CATHODE SEALING MEANS FOR ECM MACHINING An electrolyte chamber for an electrochemical machine tool includes opposed cathodes movable in respective directions toward one another and toward a workpart therebetween and sealing pistons each movable in the electrolyte chamber to sealingly engage the side of a respective one of the cathodes. An electrolyte inlet is disposed between the sealing pistons, and the sealing pistons direct electrolyte flow toward the workpart between the workpart and cathodes and prevent electrolyte from by-passing around the cathodes. |
