Abstract
This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of high precision finishing of gears by electrochemical honing (ECH) process. It is an electrochemical (EC)-based hybrid machining process combining the faster material removal capability of electrochemical machining (ECM) process and controlled functional surface–generating capability of conventional honing in a single action. The precision finishing of gears by ECH is a productive, high-accuracy, long toollife gear finishing process. The present study contains a detailed description of the process principle, influencing parameters, process capabilities, equipment details, applications, advantages and limitations, and comprehensive literature review of past research work on the ECH of gears along with some guidelines for further research with an objective to revive the interest of the global research community to mature this process further.
