Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a thin-walled ring one-time forming layered sleeve processing method, in particular to a high-precision, low-cost one-time forming layered sleeve processing method for thin-walled ring parts, which is suitable for single piece / small batch trial production of thin-walled parts in the fields of aerospace, precision instruments, etc., and belongs to the technical field of machining. BACKGROUND
[0002] Traditional thin-walled ring processing needs to rely on special tooling for multiple clamping and sleeve processing, which has the following defects: 1. The development cycle of special tooling is long (3-5 weeks), the cost is high (single sleeve cost is 20-50 thousand yuan), and the economy is poor; 2. Multiple clamping leads to cumulative error, roundness error > 0.1mm, coaxiality out-of-tolerance rate ≥25%; 3. The sleeve allowance distribution is unreasonable, which is easy to cause clamping deformation, and the roundness qualification rate of finished product ≤20%.
[0003] Although the prior art such as CN115533170A (a thin-walled part machining clamp, thin-walled part machining equipment and machining method) reduces deformation through hydraulic expansion clamping, it needs to customize the clamp and cannot realize multi-specification part compatibility. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an efficient processing method without special tooling and suitable for multi-size thin-walled parts. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a processing method for one-time forming of thin-walled ring by layered sleeve processing strategy and dynamic clamping compensation, which solves the problem of strong dependence on traditional process tooling and low machining precision.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present application adopts the following technical scheme: A thin-walled ring one-time forming layered sleeve processing method, characterized in that it comprises the following steps: (a) Clamping the disc blank on the four-jaw chuck of the lathe, adjusting the outer circle clamping position, so that the center position of the disc blank and the coaxiality runout of the lathe main shaft ≤0.05mm; (b) According to the number of thin-walled ring processing, layered processing from outside to inside, each layer in turn performs rough machining slotting, fine machining inner hole / outer circle and taper angle compensation turning; (c) Dynamically switching between outer circle clamping and inner hole supporting clamping mode, the clamping force is self-adaptively adjusted according to the chuck clamping position, and the oil pressure is controlled at 0.8-1.2MPa; (d) Using inner hole slotting cutter to cut and separate the parts, the feed rate ≤0.1mm / r.
[0006] The rough machining slotting is end face slotting along the set diameter using sleeve drilling; The depth of the roughing groove is: the thickness of the disc blank - (2±0.1) mm, with a radial allowance of 3 mm; The finishing of the inner hole: use an internal turning tool to machine the inner hole to the target size, with a feed rate of 0.1 mm / r and a spindle speed of 500 r / min; The finishing of the outer diameter: switch to an outer diameter turning tool to machine the outer diameter to the target wall thickness, with a cutting depth of 0.2 mm and a tool tip radius of R0.4 mm; The angle-compensated turning is achieved by adjusting the angle of the lathe's small pallet, using a dial indicator to calibrate the tool path angle, with a compensation value Δθ = 0.5°. The dynamic switching of outer circle clamping and inner hole support clamping method is as follows: First piece clamping: a four-jaw chuck clamps the outer circle of the disc blank; Subsequent clamping: switch to the machined inner hole for radial support, and use copper soft claws for buffering. The clamping force is adaptively adjusted according to the chuck clamping position. The hydraulic pressure of the outer diameter clamping hydraulic chuck is controlled at 1.0 to 1.2 MPa, and the hydraulic pressure of the inner diameter supporting hydraulic chuck is controlled at 0.8 to 1.0 MPa. The part is cut and separated by an internal grooved cutter. The internal grooved cutter cuts along a predetermined width, and the surface roughness Ra is ≤ 3.2 μm.
[0007] The beneficial effects of this invention are: (1) Layered nesting strategy: By processing the inner → outer → inner sequence and pre-allocating the allowance (radial 3mm, axial 0.2mm), the balance between part clamping and processing is achieved. There is enough clamping position to withstand the deformation of the part under stress, and there is enough space to realize the cutting of the tool. (2) Angle dynamic compensation mechanism: Based on the small pallet angle deviation Δθ, the angle of the tool path is corrected by a dial indicator during the machining of the conical surface, with an angle accuracy of ±0.1°; (3) Clamping force adaptive control: The clamping force of the hydraulic chuck is automatically adjusted according to the clamping position (outer circle / inner hole), and the oil pressure is controlled at (0.8~1.2MPa) to reduce thin-wall deformation.
