Advanced Machining Questions and Answers – ECM-Process Control

This set of Advanced Machining Processes Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “ECM-Process Control”.

1. If there is a change in the selected machining conditions, it will have impact on which of the following?
a) Process accuracy
b) Surface finish
c) Process accuracy & Surface finish
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: Selected machining conditions should remain unchanged, because, it will have a direct impact on accuracy and surface finish.

a) Tool feed rate
b) Gap voltage
c) Work piece material
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: Roughness depend on current density, which is affected by tool feed rate, gap voltage, work material, pH number, temperature, conductivity and pressure.

3. Machining conditions leading to high accuracy are associated with ________ surface roughness and ________ productivity.
a) Greater, greater
b) Smaller, greater
c) Greater, smaller
d) Smaller, smaller
View Answer

Answer: b

4. Non stationary behaviour of ECM is due to, which of the factors below?
a) Gas generation
b) Heating
c) Passivation
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: Non stationary behaviour of ECM is due to the inter electrode gap conditions such as gas generation, passivation, heating and other electrode reactions.
