AI Technical Summary
In the digital hole-making process, errors in spindle tool installation cause the relative position of the tool in the coordinate system to shift, resulting in inaccurate countersink depth, which may cause the countersink to be too deep or too shallow, affecting hole-making efficiency and product quality.
By identifying the thickness and material of the stacked layers, the processing tools and parameters are automatically selected, and the parameters are corrected through trial tool compensation to ensure that the countersink depth meets the requirements. Multiple trial cuts are performed using a trial cutting block until the standard is met.
The precise control of the countersink depth is achieved, which avoids the problem of countersinking being too deep or too shallow, improves the hole-making efficiency and product quality, and reduces the need for manual secondary processing.

Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of counterbore machining, and relates to an aircraft skin hole depth precise control method based on trial tool compensation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Most of the aircraft outer covering part covers and skin connecting parts are countersunk parts, and the connecting part holes are mostly countersunk holes. The counterbore depth of the connecting part hole directly affects the connecting strength and fatigue life of the aircraft.
[0003] At present, the digital automatic hole making technology is more and more widely applied in the field of aircraft assembly. The digital hole making system uses the preset trajectory production code after simulation to make the main shaft drive the tool to feed and move to make holes and counterbores on the aircraft structure. Theoretically, the operation process is as follows: automatic tool changing of the main shaft, automatic tool setting, movement to the working position, adjustment of the attitude of the main shaft unit, hole making and counterbore making of the main shaft normal feed. Before the automatic hole making of the digital hole making system, we can obtain the theoretical coordinates of the to-be-made hole point from the theoretical model, but the theoretical coordinates are the theoretical coordinates of the hole point in the aircraft coordinate system and the lamination information.
[0004] However, in the actual counterbore process, due to the error in the tool mounting of the main shaft, the relative position of the tool in the coordinate system is offset, so that the tool cannot make holes according to the preset feed value. If the final feed amount is too large, the risk of over-deep counterbore will be caused, and if the final feed amount is too small, the connecting part cannot be put in, and manual secondary processing is required, which affects the hole making efficiency.
[0005] In summary, in order to ensure that the counterbore machining depth meets the requirements and to ensure efficient task completion, an aircraft skin hole depth precise control method based on trial tool compensation is urgently needed. SUMMARY
[0006] The purpose of the present application is to provide an aircraft skin hole depth precise control method based on trial tool compensation, which can automatically select machining tools and machining parameters by identifying the lamination thickness and material, and perform secondary correction on the parameters through trial tool compensation to ensure that the product hole depth meets the requirements.
