Abstract
In this study, the effect of various parameters including the voltage, current, polishing time, temperature and electrode spacing on the electropolishing quality of Ti6Al4V samples made via electron beam melting was investigated using specialty designed research setups. The relationships between these process parameters and the surface roughness of the parts were established experimentally.
