download PDFAbstract. This work falls within the context of very rough parts (Ra > 10 µm) polishing using a new hybrid process called PEMEC, which combines a mechanical abrasion action (tribofinishing) and an anodic dissolution action (electrochemical polishing). The study of the performances of a polishing process requires the monitoring of the surface roughness, but also the monitoring of the dimensions and the shape of the parts. This paper proposes a new method for characterising polishing operations that enables all these criteria to be monitored in a single test. This method is applied to the study of the influence of the electrolyte temperature in the PEMEC process.
