Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of processing technology, specifically relating to a skeleton processing and manufacturing process for superconducting arc-shaped inclined solenoid CCT and DCT. Background Technology
[0002] The Canted Cosine Theta (CCT) superconducting deflection magnet is a core component of the superconducting synchrotron and superconducting Gantry in next-generation miniaturized heavy ion therapy devices. The CCT-type superconducting coil is a novel coil structure that achieves the desired magnetic field distribution by controlling the spatial curve and end structure. For this type of coil, technical challenges such as the precision of the slot machining, assembly and support, the forming and machining of the arc-shaped skeleton, the application of interlayer prestress, and vacuum curing are all crucial to the magnet's development. This component is difficult to manufacture, and currently, mature and reliable processing techniques are lacking.
[0003] One existing process uses stainless steel bent tubes, CNC precision machining of the outer diameter, followed by edge winding with glass fiber ribbon using a five-axis winding machine and epoxy curing. Then, CNC milling and turning is used to machine the outer diameter of the CCT and DCT skeleton arc surfaces and the coil grooves, and superconducting wires are wound. This process is repeated for the second layer, and so on for the third and fourth layers. This process has the following problems: as the number of coils increases and the diameter grows, the milling and turning process exceeds the tolerance of the equipment's travel; the weight increases, and due to the eccentricity of the bent tube's center of gravity, assembly on the milling and turning machine becomes difficult; the added wiring between each layer of superconducting wires increases the risk of superconductivity failure; and the entire production process of a superconducting coil requires waiting for the previous process to be completed before proceeding to the next, severely restricting mass production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a skeleton processing and manufacturing process for superconducting arc-shaped inclined solenoids (CCT and DCT). The purpose is to provide a more mature and reliable skeleton processing and manufacturing process for CCT and DCT, so as to reduce the number of joints between layers and reduce the risk of quench failure; and to solve the problem of overtravel and difficulty in processing when the wire groove skeleton is increased.
[0005] Therefore, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A manufacturing process for the skeleton of a superconducting arc-shaped inclined solenoid CCT and DCT, wherein the CCT and DCT skeletons have the same arc radius and the same outer and inner diameters of the cross-sectional circular tube; the arc radius of the skeleton is R1, the outer diameter of the cross-sectional circular tube is ΦQ, and the inner diameter of the cross-sectional circular tube is Φq; the central angle of the CCT skeleton is Q°, and the angle between the inclined groove and the horizontal plane is E°; the central angle of the DCT skeleton is W°, and the outer surface of the DCT skeleton is provided with an annular racetrack-shaped groove; characterized in that the manufacturing process includes the following steps:
[0007] 1) Fabrication of G10 skeleton tubes for CCT and DCT
[0008] The G10 pipe blank was cast according to the design requirements. A soft mold with internal heating and internal expansion was used, with external positioning on the outer metal mold. The pipe was formed by injection molding using a method of layering fiberglass cloth, ensuring the arc radius R1 of the G10 pipe. Precision, pipe diameter ΦA0 +0.2 The accuracy meets the design requirements;
[0009] 2) CCT and DCT tooling processing and installation
[0010] = 1 * GB3 * MERGEFORMAT ① In the first set of tooling ( Figure 4 As shown, three positioning arc plates are machined on the surface, and circular arc positioning grooves are designed and machined on the upper surface of the positioning arc plates; the radius of the arc positioning grooves is R1. The diameter of the arc-shaped positioning groove cross-section is ΦQ The central angle is less than 180°; several vertical screw holes are opened on both sides of the positioning arc plate positioning groove; serving as the reference for the first semi-finishing;
[0011] = 2 * GB3 * MERGEFORMAT ② In the second set of tooling ( Figure 4 As shown, machine arc-shaped positioning grooves on three positioning arc plates, with an arc radius of R1. The diameter of the arc-shaped positioning groove cross-section is ΦQ The positioning arc plate has several vertical screw holes on both sides of the positioning groove; an angle positioning block is designed and machined at one end of the angle Q±0.01° or W±0.01° to ensure that the error is no more than 0.01°, which serves as the precision machining reference for the end positioning.
[0012] Each positioning arc plate is sequentially positioned on the tooling base plate and then fixed together to the machining table of the machine tool; such as Figure 4 As shown;
[0013] 3) Semi-finishing of G10 pipe
[0014] Install the blank G10 tube from step 1) horizontally onto the first fixture in step 2). Roughly align the blank G10 tubes symmetrically into the arc positioning grooves of the fixture. Use a dial indicator to roughly check that the symmetry is within 0.15mm of the inner arc and the relevant lines at both ends. Fill the gaps between the unsupported portions of the blank G10 tubes with plaster to prevent vibration during processing. Then install V-shaped pressure plates to press the blank G10 tubes firmly. Install two V-shaped pressure plates on each base plate. The radius of the processed arc is R1. The diameter of the arc is ΦQ The angle is Q±0.01° or W±0.01°; then, the positioning planes M and N are machined on the G10 tube without oblique helices at both ends, which serve as the alignment datum for clamping the part after it has been rotated 180° (see...). Figure 1 and Figure 2 The DCT coil frame has a racetrack-shaped groove, so it's designed as a flat surface in the middle. During the finishing of the curved surface, it's machined as a flat surface to serve as a reference for part alignment. The CCT coil frame is machined at both ends as follows... Figure 1 Reference points M and N are shown.
[0015] 4) Machining of the arc surface of G10 pipe
[0016] To finish the outer diameter of the upper semicircular surface of the G10 tube, install the G10 tube on the second set of fixtures. When the machining path of the machine tool head approaches the V-shaped clamping plate, remove the V-shaped clamping plate. After the machining path of the machine tool head passes through, reinstall the V-shaped clamping plate. Repeat this process of removing and installing each V-shaped clamping plate along the machining path until the outer diameter ΦQ of the upper semicircular surface of the G10 tube is finished. The radius of the arc of the positioning groove is R1. Next, machine the Q±0.01° or W±0.01° angle of the G10 tube to the dimensions shown in the drawing, controlling the angle tolerance to be no greater than ±0.01°; repeat step 4) once, remove the V-shaped pressure plate, rotate the G10 tube 180° and insert it into the arc positioning groove of the tooling, and finish machine the outer diameter of the other half of the arc surface to ΦQ. The G10 tube is fitted with an angle of Q° or W° to the angle positioning plate, with a 0.02 feeler gauge not allowed to enter; this ensures a repeatability error of less than 0.04; the outer diameter of the other half of the G10 tube's arc surface is precision machined to the required size; (Note that during the alignment process, the gap can be adjusted using a 0.02 feeler gauge)
[0017] 5) Precision machining of CCT skeleton G10 tube
[0018] = 1 \* GB3① Install the G10 tube with a central angle of Q°, which has been rough-machined in step 4), onto the tooling in step 2). Control one end face of the G10 tube to coincide with the side of the adjacent positioning block, ensuring that the 0.02mm feeler gauge does not slip in. Then use a U-shaped pressure plate to press the G10 tube tightly. Ensure that the positioning error of the G10 tube in the finishing process does not exceed 0.05. It is necessary to set some points on the computer 3D model and measure them on the CNC machine tool to ensure that the error is within 0.05 before starting the machining. Use plaster to padded the part to prevent vibration during machining, which would affect the surface finish of the part.
[0019] = 2 \* GB3② Machining the inclined helical groove with an angle of E° on the upper semicircular surface to the size required by the drawing; when the machining path of the machine tool head approaches the U-shaped pressure plate, remove the U-shaped pressure plate, and reinstall the U-shaped pressure plate after the machining path of the tool head passes through; disassemble and install each U-shaped pressure plate on the machining path in sequence until the machining of the inclined helical groove on the upper semicircular surface of the G10 tube is completed.
[0020] = 3 \* GB3③ Remove the U-shaped pressure plate, rotate the G10 tube 180° and install it into the arc positioning groove of the tooling, then perform the clamping and alignment in step ①, controlling the alignment error to be less than 0.03mm; follow step ② to complete the finishing of the other half of the arc surface and the machining of the inclined spiral groove; (when machining the upper and lower half of the spiral, the machining groove needs to pass through the semicircle by 180° and 1 tool diameter)
[0021] 6) Precision machining of DCT skeleton G10 tube
[0022] For the DCT skeleton finishing process, select the G10 tube with a central angle of W° that has been rough-machined in step 4). The finishing process steps for the outer diameter of the upper half of the DCT skeleton G10 tube are the same as those for the CCT skeleton G10 tube. After the upper half of the outer diameter of the DCT skeleton G10 tube is finished, machine the annular track groove to the dimensions in the drawing according to the drawing requirements. Remove the U-shaped pressure plate, rotate the G10 tube 180° and install it into the arc positioning groove of the tooling, re-clamp and align it, and machine the outer diameter of the other half of the G10 tube and the annular track groove.
[0023] Furthermore, in step 6), after the outer diameter of the upper semicircular surface of the G10 tube is finished, several positioning holes are opened on the center line of the top surface of the G10 tube; when processing the annular track groove, the U-shaped pressure plate is removed, and an arc-shaped horizontal pressure plate is installed on the top surface of the G10 tube through the positioning holes.
[0024] Furthermore, step 4) rough machining of the G10 pipe uses a CNC three-axis machining center.
[0025] Furthermore, in step 5), the CCT skeleton G10 tube finishing process is performed using a CNC five-axis machining center.
[0026] Furthermore, in step 6), the DCT skeleton G10 tube is precision machined using a CNC five-axis gantry machining center.
[0027] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0028] 1. The G10 tube blanks for CCT and DCT of the present invention adopt soft mold heating and internal expansion, and metal mold external positioning to control the tolerance accuracy of the inner diameter of G10 tubes. The tubes are formed by injection molding using glass fiber cloth stacking. This reduces the process difficulty of processing the inner diameter and achieves a process breakthrough in multi-layer nested installation.
[0029] 2. This invention employs a CNC three-axis machining center for rough machining of the outer diameter and a CNC five-axis machining center for finish machining of the CCT inclined spiral groove skeleton and the DCT annular raceway groove skeleton, thereby improving the feasibility of machining processes for various models and specifications. It avoids the problems of interference between the spindle head, cutting tools, etc., and the parts when machining larger specifications of CCT and DCT G10 skeletons due to the limitation of the turning diameter of the turning and milling composite five-axis machining center, and the waste caused by the need to purchase a larger model turning and milling composite five-axis machining center. Therefore, this invention has greater production flexibility, can realize product development more economically, and reduces the risks and cost control in the development process.
[0030] 3. The G10 skeleton of CCT and DCT processed by this invention ensures the accuracy of the pipeline and provides a benchmark for the subsequent assembly of G10 pipelines of CCT and DCT. It avoids the original winding process, which involves winding superconducting wire after processing, and then repeating the process multiple times on CNC five-axis machining. This increases the tooling cost and risk in the subsequent processing. If there is a problem with the superconducting wire at any stage, the entire coil will be scrapped. Compared with the original process, this invention has significant improvements and can be mass-produced, and is more economical.
[0031] 4. The G10 wire groove skeleton of CCT and DCT processed by this invention can be inspected before casting to ensure that each superconducting connection meets the design requirements before proceeding with the subsequent casting process, thereby reducing the scrap rate and improving product quality.
