Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of surface engineering, and in particular to a method for determining process parameters of gradient nano-processing of a workpiece. Background Art
[0002] Gradient nanocrystallization technology significantly improves the hardness, fatigue life, and wear resistance of metal parts by regulating the gradient distribution of grain size on the material's surface. It has important applications in high-precision industries such as aerospace and automotive manufacturing. Among related technologies, mainstream processes for achieving gradient nanocrystallization include surface mechanical attrition treatment (SMAT), surface mechanical rolling (SMRT), and traditional rolling techniques. However, these methods face significant bottlenecks in process parameter optimization and gradient control.
[0003] In related technologies, surface mechanical attrition treatment (SMAT) induces severe plastic deformation by impacting the material surface with high-speed projectiles, promoting dislocation proliferation and grain refinement, and forming a nano-submicron gradient structure from the surface to the inside; however, its surface roughness ( ) is high, and the gradient layer depth is shallow, making it difficult to meet the requirements of workpieces with high surface quality and gradient layer depth, such as precious metal rollers. Surface mechanical rolling (SMRT) uses a carbide ball to roll on the surface of a rotating workpiece, accumulating plastic strain through multiple passes to achieve a gradient distribution of nanograins. However, the selection of its process parameters (pressure, speed, feed rate) still relies on orthogonal experiments and lacks theoretical model guidance. Parameter optimization of traditional gradient nano-processes mainly relies on empirical trial and error or orthogonal experiments. To obtain a uniform gradient nano-layer, it is necessary to repeatedly adjust the tool head pressure, speed, feed rate and number of passes, and the experimental cycle can last up to several months.
[0004] The process parameter optimization methods used in related technologies lack theoretical models driven by material mechanical properties, resulting in low efficiency, high costs, and insufficient process stability. Specifically, they are manifested in the following aspects:
[0005] 1. Parameter isolation: Parameter screening relies on trial-and-error experiments, and no quantitative correlation model is established with the intrinsic parameters of the material (such as stacking fault energy, mechanical parameters, etc.);
[0006] 2. Redundant experiments: The grain refinement effect of the workpiece needs to be verified one by one through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which is inefficient;
[0007] 3. Difficulty in controlling gradient parameters: There is a lack of theoretical models to predict the quantitative relationship between gradient layer depth and process parameters; for example, gradient layer depth With the blade pressure The relationship is usually expressed as an empirical formula , but the influence of the material's dynamic yield strength and work hardening coefficient is not considered, resulting in poor process transplantability of different materials.
[0008] Therefore, how to effectively improve the optimization efficiency of the process parameters of gradient nano-processing of workpieces is a technical problem that those skilled in the art currently need to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0082] In this embodiment, the method for determining process parameters of gradient nano-sintering of a workpiece includes the following steps:
[0083] Step S1: According to the dynamic yield strength of the material , single-pass equivalent plastic strain , set gradient layer depth , machining head curvature radius , work hardening coefficient and the stacking fault energy of the material , calculate the cutter head pressure ;

[0089] Specifically, the workpiece can be a metal rotating part. The surface roughness of the workpiece test sample can be detected by a contact profilometer or a microscope. The surface hardness of the workpiece test sample can be detected by tools such as a hardness tester or a nanoindenter. The actual gradient layer depth of the workpiece test sample can be detected by microhardness gradient testing or electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). Compared with the process of successively verifying the grain refinement effect of the workpiece using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in related technologies, it can effectively shorten the cycle, simplify the process, and reduce costs.
[0090] This method for determining the process parameters of gradient nano-processing of workpieces adjusts the tool head pressure P, operating speed N, feed rate f, and pass number n to optimal values by obtaining the surface roughness, surface hardness, and actual gradient layer depth of the workpiece as feedback. This method avoids the process of verifying the grain refinement effect of the workpiece through empirical trial and error or complex orthogonal experiments with the help of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Instead, it only needs to detect the surface roughness, surface hardness, and actual gradient layer depth of the workpiece. This method can effectively improve the industrial feasibility of workpiece surface nano-processing, increase efficiency, and reduce costs.

[0117] In some embodiments, the pass number n is related to the accumulated plastic strain and the grain refinement depth. The value of the pass number affects the accumulated plastic strain and determines the nanograin size and gradient distribution of the workpiece.

[0120] is the initial grain size, in nm;
[0121] is the target grain size, in nm;
[0122] is the single-pass grain refinement parameter, with a unit of 1.
[0123] The above process is based on the mechanical properties of the material, such as the dynamic yield strength of the material , work hardening coefficient k, etc., plastic deformation mechanism and grain parameters, such as initial grain size , target grain size , set the gradient layer depth h, etc., build a correlation model of tool head pressure P, working speed N, feed rate f and pass n, pre-select the calculated values of tool head pressure P, working speed N, feed rate f and pass n as parameter combination through theoretical calculation, and then optimize the tool head pressure P, working speed N, feed rate f and pass n through processing verification to obtain the optimized value.
[0124] In some embodiments, the gradient layer depth h is set to ≤ 3 mm. This method is more suitable for scenarios where the gradient layer depth h is set to ≤ 3 mm. The selection of the gradient layer depth h can be determined according to different materials and process parameters.

When the gradient layer depth h is increased, the single-pass equivalent plastic strain Corresponding increase; material dynamic yield strength It is related to the strain rate and can be measured by the Hopkins on bar experiment. The strain rate is per second; the value of the work hardening coefficient k should be selected according to the different materials, for example, the work hardening coefficient k of 304 stainless steel is 0.25, and the work hardening coefficient k of titanium alloy is 0.15; the stacking fault energy of the material Determined by the material crystal structure; single-pass grain refinement parameters It should be based on different materials, mainly depending on the stacking fault energy and dominant deformation mechanism of the material. For example, the value of austenitic stainless steel is between 0.25-0.5, and the value of titanium alloy is between 0.36-075.
[0127] In some embodiments, nano-machining a workpiece using the calculated tool head pressure P, operating speed N, feed rate f, and pass number n includes:
[0128] A special nano-machine tool is used to perform nano-machining on the workpiece, so as to verify the tool head pressure P, working speed N, feed rate f and pass n; the special nano-machine tool includes a processing execution end, a temperature control system, a control system and a sample stage, the processing execution end is used to perform nano-machining on the workpiece, the temperature control system is used to control the temperature and lubrication of the surface of the workpiece, and the control system is used to control the processing execution end and the temperature control system; the sample stage is used to carry the workpiece; specifically, the special nano-machine tool includes but is not limited to equipment that is modified from CNC milling machines, CNC drilling machines, grinders and machining centers; the processing execution end includes a tool, a tool holder and a pressure device, the tool is made of cemented carbide, bearing steel or ceramic, and the tool head curvature diameter range is optional 4-10mm, that is, the curvature radius of the processing head. Under the same pressure, when the curvature radius of the processing head changes, the pressure on the workpiece surface is different; the number of tool ball heads can be single or multiple, and the appropriate amount is 1.
[0129] In some embodiments, the temperature control system is also used to adjust the temperature of the workpiece to between -196°C and 300°C. High temperatures can cause recrystallization of nanocrystals within the workpiece, while low temperatures can degrade the plasticity of the material within the workpiece. The specific requirements are determined based on the material. The temperature control system is also used to lubricate and cool the workpiece using a lubricant or cooling medium. When the workpiece temperature is below room temperature, liquid nitrogen is added to cool the workpiece. When the workpiece temperature is above room temperature, a heating device is activated to heat the workpiece and the cooling medium. The heating device can be a hot air blower, an induction heater, or other device. The lubricant can be lubricating oil, and the cooling medium can be water.
[0130] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the nano-processing of workpieces using a special nano-machine tool includes:
[0131] Step S51: Fixing the workpiece on the sample stage;
[0132] Step S52: applying a tool head pressure P to the workpiece using the machining execution end, pressing the tool head in the machining execution end into the surface of the workpiece to a certain depth, for example, 0-800 μm;
[0133] Step S53: The machining execution end performs a rotational motion about the centerline of the workpiece, or the machining execution end controls the workpiece to perform a rotational motion about the centerline of the workpiece, the rotational speed being the working speed N, and the machining execution end translates toward one end of the axis by a single-turn feed amount f per revolution until the workpiece reaches the target length;
[0134] Step S54: After the surface of the workpiece is processed n times, a gradient nanostructured surface layer is obtained on the surface of the workpiece; the surface of the workpiece is composed of nano-sized grains, submicron-sized grains and original-sized grain structures from the outside to the inside, and the surface layer thickness can reach 800um-2500um.
[0135] In some embodiments, the surface roughness, surface hardness and actual gradient layer depth of the workpiece test sample are detected. , and adjust the cutter head pressure P, working speed N, feed rate f and / or pass number n according to the test results, including:
[0136] When the actual gradient layer depth is less than or equal to the target layer depth, the tool head pressure P is adjusted to:
[0137] ;
[0138] Also, it should be determined ≤1.2 , >1.2 In order to avoid material failure, you can set ;
[0139] When the surface roughness is less than or equal to the target roughness, the operating speed N is adjusted to:
[0140] ;
[0141] Among them, θ=0.8-0.9, for example, θ=0.85; the target roughness can be selected as 0.2.
[0142] When the surface hardness is less than or equal to the target hardness, the pass number n is adjusted to:
[0143] ;
[0144] Furthermore, when the layer depth fluctuation m of the adjacent areas on the surface of the workpiece test sample is ≥ the preset fluctuation value, the feed rate f is adjusted to:
[0145] .
[0146] The depth fluctuation m between adjacent areas on the surface of the workpiece test sample refers to the difference in actual gradient depth between two adjacent areas on the surface of the workpiece test sample, divided by the actual gradient depth of one of the areas. This depth fluctuation m is determined to determine the uniformity of the gradient depth on the surface of the workpiece test sample. Specifically, the preset fluctuation value can be 20%. That is, when the depth fluctuation m between adjacent areas on the surface of the workpiece test sample is ≥ 20%, the feed rate f is adjusted. Of course, the value of 10% in the formula can be set as needed, for example, it can be a value between 8% and 12%.
[0147] In the above process, the surface roughness, surface hardness and actual gradient layer depth of the workpiece test sample are judged respectively, and the values of feed rate f, working speed N, pass number n and tool head pressure P are adjusted respectively.
[0148] Specifically, in a specific embodiment, taking a SUS304 stainless steel rod workpiece with a diameter of 30 mm as an example, the length of the workpiece is 400 mm, the curvature radius r of the processing head is 3 mm, and the dynamic yield strength of the material is 800Mpa, material stacking fault energy 45mJ / m 2 , single-pass equivalent plastic strain The value is 3, the work hardening coefficient k is 0.25, the ball material of the tool is steel, and the tool elastic modulus is =210000 MPa, Poisson's ratio of tool =0.3; the workpiece material is 304 stainless steel, the workpiece elastic modulus =200000 MPa, Poisson's ratio of the workpiece =0.29, roughness =0.8um, initial grain size =50um, target grain size =10nm, single-pass grain refinement parameters =0.3.
[0149] Specifically, the gradient layer depth h is set to 1.5 mm and the calculation is as follows:
[0150] Blade pressure , about 1.08kN;
[0151] Speed ;
[0152] Feed rate ;
[0153] path Second-rate;
[0154] The above parameters were verified using a nano-machine tool. The processing temperature was room temperature, and 0W40 engine oil was used for cooling and lubrication. First, the workpiece was fixed on the sample table. The processing execution end applied a pressure of 1080N to the workpiece, and the tool head was pressed into the metal surface of the workpiece to a certain depth. The nano-machine tool controlled the workpiece to rotate around the center line at a speed of 126 rpm. The processing execution end moved axially for each revolution with a single-turn feed of 0.11mm. This operation was performed until the rotating part length reached 400mm. Repeat the above process. After processing the surface of the workpiece 5 times, a gradient nanostructured surface layer was obtained on the surface of the workpiece. From the outside to the inside, there are nano-sized grains, submicron-sized grains, and original-sized grain structures. The layer thickness is 2mm. Please refer to the attached document. Figure 3 、 Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2 , 304 stainless steel workpiece, after nano-processing, the gradient structure layer depth map and surface TEM morphology image show that the average grain size of the material surface is 23nm, and the actual gradient layer depth is about 2mm, which meets the processing requirements; if it does not meet the requirements, the surface roughness, surface hardness and actual gradient layer depth of the workpiece test sample are tested. , and adjust the corresponding tool head pressure P, working speed N, feed rate f and / or pass number n respectively.
[0155] This method for determining the process parameters of gradient nano-processing of workpieces unifies the tool head pressure P, working speed N, feed rate f and pass number n in a mathematical framework driven by mechanical properties for the first time. By pre-selecting parameter combinations through theoretical calculations, it upgrades from an "experience-driven" mode to a precise control mode of "theoretical guidance + data verification". This method can reduce the number of material processing experiments for workpieces by 90%. Related technologies often require 20 sets of orthogonal experiments, while this scheme only requires 2-3 sets. After preparing the nano-gradient material using this method, only the surface roughness, surface hardness, actual gradient layer depth and other properties need to be appropriately adjusted to adjust its process parameters. The grain refinement effect is no longer verified step by step by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which greatly improves the industrial feasibility of surface nano-processing. After optimizing the process parameters and processing the workpiece using this method, the mechanical properties of the workpiece material, including surface hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and fatigue resistance, are greatly improved, the material utilization rate is increased, and the overall cost can be significantly reduced.

Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method of the present invention and its core idea. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principles of the present invention, the present invention can also be improved and modified in a number of ways, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
