Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polishing equipment technology, and specifically relates to a rope polishing device for parts with micro-detailed internal holes. Background Technology

[0002] Industrial parts manufactured using metal additive manufacturing technology are widely used in military defense, aerospace, and medical implants due to their advantages such as design freedom, structural integration, and on-demand customization. However, limitations such as the "spheroidization effect" caused by the solidification and adhesion of melt particles during additive manufacturing, the "powder adhesion" caused by insufficient melting in the heat-affected zone leading to powder adhesion, and the "step effect" caused by the inability of the stepped contour of the formed part surface to perfectly match the CAD model result in a large number of pores on the inner and outer surfaces of additively manufactured metal parts, poor surface quality, and inability to meet high serviceability requirements without subsequent polishing, which seriously affects the fatigue life of the parts and the safety and reliability of the overall equipment. Currently, additively manufactured metal parts still rely heavily on manual polishing, but the quality of manual polishing is highly dependent on the operator's experience level, has poor consistency, high labor and time costs, and easily generates toxic and harmful dust during the polishing process, which is harmful to human health. Sandblasting, machine tool grinding, and laser polishing have poor accessibility for processing complex and narrow curved surface structures. Electrochemical polishing is prone to localized corrosion, and this process has poor polishing effect on the inner surface of the workpiece. While abrasive flow machining technology offers high accessibility, it is prone to over-polishing of workpiece edges, which can negatively impact workpiece lifespan. Furthermore, it is unsuitable for polishing the inner surfaces of thin-walled, low-rigidity structural components. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop advanced polishing technologies, equipment, and processes for parts with elongated, narrow internal holes. Summary of the Invention
