  • Patent number: 6200439
    Abstract: An electrode used as a tool in an electrochemical machining process to generate raised areas or ridges in the walls of a predrilled hole in an electrically conductive workpiece has an electrically conductive cylinder partially coated with an electrically insulating material in a pattern defining the raised areas to be formed. The pattern may comprise a plurality of spaced apart rings. An electrochemical machining method of drilling bulbs in the walls of a predrilled hole uses the electrode of the invention to greatly increase process efficiency.
