Electrochemical machining (ECM) is a well-established elution method with high processing speed, application to hard-to-cut material and less tool wear as noncontact between a workpiece and a tool. However, ECM is hard to process precisely and fabricate nanostructures. A short-pulsed laser (SPL), on the other hand, can fabricate fine periodic structures called as LIPSS (laser-induced periodic surface structures), which has been reported to provide materials with functionalities such as the reduction of friction, the change of wettability and the improvement of biocompatibility. Nevertheless, an SPL capable of fabricating nanostructures is unstable for the creation of large scale shapes. The appropriate processing method depends on the scale of the demanded shape and structure, and it takes long processing time with the complicated process to create the shape and fabricate nanostructures on the surface. The hybrid manufacturing process with an SPL and ECM (SPLECM) was then proposed to fabricate multiscale structures effectively, that an SPL increasing electric filed intensity enables ECM to improve the processing speed and fabrication of nanostructures on the electrochemical machined surface. In this study, the effects of the hybrid process with an SPL and ECM on the fabrication of multiscale structures on 304 stainless steel substrates were investigated experimentally. The proposed method capable of improving processing speed and fabricating multi-scale structures were stated. This study demonstrated the efficacy of SPLECM to create a shape and fabricate nanostructures on the surface simultaneously.
