Abstract Electrochemical machining process of curvilinear surfaces with a shaped electrode is still considered one of basic operations within this technology. In a case of machining such complex surfaces it is difficult to design constant values of this process for the whole of the machining time and additionally ensure high production efficiency. This paper presents a system for controlling and monitoring the electrochemical machining process in a way which allows a suitable modification of parameters related to the kinematics of a tool electrode, including the frequency of its vibrations and tool design stage verification and optimization of machining equipment behavior. The parameters are modified according to designed criteria. The article also presents the research station which was used for verification of the presented system, as well as the effects of this verification.
