The invention relates to a machining apparatus for electrochemically removing component layers of a component, having at least one electrode, which is mounted so as to be movable along at least one infeed axis, and having at least one auxiliary electrode, which is mounted so as to be movable along an auxiliary infeed axis, wherein a gap for arranging the component for electrochemically removing the component layers extends between the at least one electrode and the at least one auxiliary electrode. At least the infeed axis and a longitudinal extension direction of the gap enclose an acute angle with each other. The machining apparatus comprises at least one oscillation device (40), which is set up at least to move the at least one electrode in an oscillating manner along the infeed axis and relative to the at least one auxiliary electrode.
