Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of machine tool component technology, and in particular to an intelligent machine tool cutting tool temperature control method. Background Technology

[0002] High cutting temperatures are a major cause of tool wear. However, higher cutting temperatures are beneficial for improving the toughness of carbide tool materials. In heated cutting, there is usually an optimal range for cutting temperature, within which not only do the workpiece material properties meet requirements, but the tool life is also relatively high. Similarly, the tool temperature also has a suitable range; controlling the tool to maintain a suitable temperature can help extend its service life.

[0003] During machining, the tool temperature will rise sharply due to friction. Therefore, the tool temperature control is mainly to control the temperature drop. During the cutting process, certain measures are usually required to cool the tool, such as air cooling or cutting fluid spraying. In cutting machining using cutting fluid cooling, the main factors affecting heat generation and dissipation are cutting parameters and cutting fluid (Yang Zhengle, Chen Yaru, Chen Yuanbo. Automatic control of cutting temperature in machining[J]. Digital World, 2019(4):1.). Cutting parameters are mainly determined by three elements: cutting speed, feed rate (or feed speed vf), and depth of cut. These are the process parameters required to adjust the relative speed and relative position between the tool and the workpiece. They can be expressed by the three elements of cutting parameters and can reflect the overall cutting process. Cutting fluid is mainly used for tool cooling. The amount of cutting fluid sprayed, its temperature, and its pressure will have a significant impact on its cooling effect.

[0004] Traditional tool temperature control schemes are generally based on feedback mechanisms. This involves first detecting the actual tool temperature, and then providing cutting fluid at a specific temperature, flow rate, and pressure based on the detected temperature to bring the tool temperature closer to the target temperature. Examples include a tool temperature detection and cooling device for an automated machine tool disclosed in patent CN112405027A, a cooling device for a turning machine tool and a turning machine tool using the same device disclosed in patent CN116765444A, and an automatic temperature control system for machine tool disclosed in patent CN207642796U. However, this approach suffers from significant lag, poor temperature control accuracy, and slow response (i.e., slow temperature regulation), resulting in ineffective tool temperature control.

[0021] During the cutting process, friction between the cutting tool and the workpiece generates heat, causing the tool temperature to rise sharply. This temperature rise is influenced by various factors, which can be mainly summarized into the following three aspects: (1) Cutting process, including cutting speed Vc, feed rate f, depth of cut αp, etc. In this invention, the cutting process characteristic value E is used. g Characterizing this influencing factor, specifically, the cutting process characteristic value E g = Cutting speed Vc × Feed rate f × Depth of cut αp, where the unit of cutting speed Vc is m / min, the unit of feed rate f is mm / r, and the unit of depth of cut αp is mm. The above process parameters in the cutting process are obtained in advance based on the specific processing requirements of the workpiece and are known quantities; for example, for a certain workpiece to be processed into a product of a certain shape and size, its cutting process will be designed and confirmed in advance, and in this invention, the cutting process can be directly retrieved.

[0023] (3) The environmental influence of the cutting process is mainly characterized by the ambient temperature during the cutting process, which is denoted as the environmental factor characteristic value E. h (Unit: °C)

[0024] Based on the above factors, the tool temperature at various moments during the cutting process can be predicted. Specifically, this invention employs a cutting temperature prediction model U.

[0029] High cutting temperatures are the main cause of tool wear, but higher cutting temperatures are beneficial to improving the toughness of carbide tool materials. Therefore, controlling the tool to maintain a suitable temperature can help extend the tool's service life.

[0030] Therefore, in this invention, after obtaining the optimal cutting temperature range in advance based on the specific material of the cutting tool, a temperature control value T is set. b This ensures that the tool temperature is controlled near a certain value, thereby guaranteeing a longer tool life and better cutting performance without wasting cutting fluid. Furthermore, in this invention, the primary requirement is that the tool temperature does not exceed the temperature control value T. b That is, when the tool temperature is lower than the temperature control value T b At this time, there is no need for temperature control. This method can not only meet the basic usage requirements, but also simplify the control operation and save cutting fluid.

[0031] Conventional tool temperature control schemes are generally based on feedback mechanisms. This means that the actual tool temperature is first detected, and then relevant cooling measures are provided based on the detected actual tool temperature value to make the tool temperature approach the target temperature. This method has a large lag and poor temperature control accuracy, resulting in poor temperature control effect on the tool.
