Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mechanical processing, and in particular to a method and system for planning a small deformation processing path for alloy parts. Background Art
[0002] In the field of precision machining, alloy parts (such as titanium alloys, nickel-based high-temperature alloys, and alloys for turbine runners) have residual stresses due to casting, forging, and welding processes before machining. Furthermore, due to the different cooling rates of different parts during the heat treatment of the blank, the residual stress distribution inside the parts varies. The material removal process is accompanied by dynamic changes in part stiffness and redistribution of residual stress, often leading to machining deformation problems. Traditional machining path planning methods have the following drawbacks: 1. The influence of stiffness evolution differences caused by the material removal process on machining deformation is not considered. 2. Ignoring the mechanism of the effect of the initial distribution difference of residual stress on the sensitivity of machining path; 3. There is a lack of analytical methods for the coupling between stiffness field and residual stress field.
[0003] Therefore, how to reduce the deformation of parts by optimizing the machining path during the cutting process has become an urgent problem to be solved.
[0004] In the prior art, CN2022103756246 discloses a finite element-based method for predicting machining deformation, but does not address closed-loop control of dynamic residual stress redistribution. CN2019109107596 proposes machining path optimization based on stiffness change curves, but does not address the coupling effect between stiffness and residual stress, resulting in low prediction accuracy. Therefore, a small-deformation machining path planning method that can simultaneously characterize the synergistic effects of stiffness evolution and residual stress redistribution is urgently needed. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and system for planning a machining path for small deformation of alloy parts, so as to solve the problem of low prediction accuracy.

The material removal process under the preset machining path is simulated, and the part deformation predicted by the coupling model is corrected by the simulated experimental data. Based on the mapping relationship between part deformation and machining path, a small deformation machining path is obtained.
[0007] Furthermore, the acquisition of processing parameters and establishment of a part stiffness evolution prediction model based on the material removal process include: Based on finite element analysis (FEA), combined with the Kirchhoff plate model and machining parameters, a staged stiffness matrix calculation model is established.

The strain released by drilling is measured by strain gauges, and the initial residual stress field is inversely calculated. Based on the stress test results, the part surface is divided into tensile stress zone, compressive stress zone and transition zone, and each zone is marked with a different color in the 3D model.
[0010] Furthermore, the part stiffness evolution prediction model based on the material removal process is coupled with the initial distribution model of the residual stress of the part through multi-physics field coupling to obtain a coupled model, including: Construct a stiffness-stress interaction matrix whose elements are determined by the product of the stiffness field gradient and the residual stress field gradient, and solve the coupled equations iteratively: [K]{u} ={F}+[C]{σ res} Where [K] is the stiffness matrix, {u} is the displacement vector, {F} is the cutting force vector, [C] is the coupling coefficient matrix, {σ res} is the residual stress vector.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings: Example 1, please refer to Figure 1 The present invention aims to solve the problem of insufficient machining deformation control accuracy caused by ignoring the interaction between stiffness evolution and residual stress redistribution in the existing technology, and provides a dynamic planning method for small deformation machining paths based on multi-physical field coupling analysis.
[0019] A small deformation machining path planning method for alloy parts, comprising: Obtain processing parameters and establish a prediction model for part stiffness evolution based on the material removal process; Conduct residual stress tests on the blank surface and build an initial residual stress distribution model for the part; Based on the part stiffness evolution prediction model during the material removal process and the initial distribution model of the residual stress of the part, a multi-physics field coupling is performed to obtain a coupling model. The material removal process under the preset machining path is simulated, and the part deformation predicted by the coupling model is corrected by the simulated experimental data. Based on the mapping relationship between part deformation and machining path, a small deformation machining path is obtained.
[0020] In embodiment 2, the present invention provides a method for planning a small deformation machining path for an alloy part, comprising: 1. Construction of stiffness evolution prediction model: Based on finite element analysis, combining finite element theory (Kirchhoff plate model) and machining parameters (cut depth, feed rate), a staged stiffness matrix calculation model was established. By updating the mesh element properties in the material removal area in real time, the dynamic attenuation of part stiffness during machining was simulated.
[0021] In the embodiment, ABAQUS software is used to set the processing time step to be synchronized with the tool path, and the stiffness field distribution is updated every time a 0.5 mm cutting stroke is completed.
[0022] 2. Modeling and partitioning of initial residual stress distribution: The blind hole method (ASTM E837 standard) was used to test the residual stress on the blank surface. The strain released by drilling was measured by strain gauges, and the initial residual stress field was inversely calculated.
[0023] Based on the stress test results, the part surface is divided into a tensile stress zone (σ>50MPa), a compressive stress zone (σ<-30MPa) and a transition zone (-30MPa≤σ≤50MPa). Each zone is marked with a different color in the 3D model.
[0024] 3. Multi-physics coupling analysis: Construct a stiffness-stress interaction matrix whose elements are determined by the product of the stiffness field gradient and the residual stress field gradient. Solve the coupled equations iteratively: [K]{u}={F}+[C]{σres} Among them, [K] is the stiffness matrix, {u} is the displacement vector, {F} is the cutting force vector, [C] is the coupling coefficient matrix, and {σ_res} is the residual stress vector.
[0025] 4. Processing path simulation and experimental verification: The enumeration method is used to simulate the material removal process of typical machining paths (such as inner ring spiral path and outer ring reciprocating path), and the maximum deformation under each path is recorded.
[0026] Comparative experiments were conducted on a five-axis machining center (such as the DMU 80 monoBLOCK), and a laser displacement sensor (accuracy 0.1μm) was used to monitor part deformation online, and an error compensation database was established between the experimental data and simulation results.
[0027] 5. Small Deformation Path Mapping Model: Based on the support vector regression (SVR) algorithm, the path-deformation mapping relationship model is trained with the machining path parameters (tool direction, cutting sequence, and layer thickness) as input and the extreme value of deformation and the standard deviation of residual stress as output.
[0028] Take the processing of impulse turbine runner (material: 06Cr13Ni4Mo stainless steel) as an example: Step 1: The initial residual stress test shows that the root of the runner blade is in the compressive stress area (-120MPa to -80MPa) and the tip is in the tensile stress area (60MPa to 90MPa); Step 2: Simulation shows that the outer ring path causes a deformation of 0.12 mm in the blade root area, and the inner ring path causes a deformation of 0.08 mm in the blade tip area; Step 3: After coupled analysis and optimization, a hybrid path (outer ring cutting in the blade root area and inner ring cutting in the blade tip area) is adopted. The final deformation is controlled within 0.05 mm, and the surface residual compressive stress is stabilized in the range of -50 MPa to -30 MPa.
