AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, the processing efficiency of the sector-shaped cone section guide parts of the ammunition storage rack is low, making it difficult to achieve mass production.
The blank parts are clamped by a three-jaw chuck and turned on a lathe for external cylindrical surfaces and angular conical surfaces. Combined with a vertical machining center and special tooling for split milling, the parts are batch-processed through step-by-step turning and milling processes.
This improved the processing efficiency of parts, reduced alignment and clamping time, and enabled efficient mass production.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of parts processing, and specifically relates to a method for batch processing of fan-shaped conical guide parts for ammunition storage racks. Background Technology
[0002] The artillery ammunition storage rack is a square frame combined with fan-shaped guide components. Multiple tapered guide components are distributed circumferentially around the ammunition storage spaces for ammunition support and axial positioning. These parts have a fan-shaped structure; the outer arc is a stepped arc structure with a sloped section and annular groove, while the inner arc is a combination of straight sections and tapered sections with an inclined angle. Currently, due to their complex structure, these parts are generally machined on CNC machine tools using CNC programs and special forming tools, requiring multiple flipping and clamping operations. Because the parts are mostly curved, tapered, and inclined surfaces, straightening and alignment are difficult; furthermore, due to their irregular shape, the clamping reference surface is small, resulting in limited clamping capacity and requiring small cutting depths, leading to low efficiency. With the increasing demands for ammunition equipment in artillery operations, the batch production of guide components is also increasing. Therefore, there is an urgent need to invent a batch processing method to ensure part quality and improve production efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0014] S8. On a vertical machining center, the inner hole of the part machined by turning is used as a reference. The part is positioned by a special tooling for split milling, and the part is clamped by the positioning pin 3 and the pressure plate (2).
