A method and system for electrochemically machining a hollow body of a metal or a metal alloy. An electrode is positioned within a hollow body including a metal or metal alloy, where the hollow body has a variable internal diameter. The hollow body is oriented vertically, with the electrode oriented vertically therein. The hollow body is at least partially filled with an aqueous, acidic electrolyte solution, the electrolyte solution being devoid of hydrofluoric acid and having a viscosity less than 15 cP. An electric current is passed between the hollow body and the electrode, where the electric current includes a plurality of anodic pulses and a plurality of cathodic pulses, and where the cathodic pulses are interposed between at least some of the anodic pulses.

Systems and methods for beneficially affecting the surface morphology of electrically conductive materials using electrochemistry are described. The systems and methods for beneficially affecting the surface morphology of electrically conductive materials use a bimodal process in which a first current type (alternating or direct) is applied across an electrolyte between an electrode and a workpiece followed by applying a second current type different from the first current type is used. The bimodal process may be repeated one or more times.
