Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of numerical control machining, in particular to a machining method for a honeycomb sacrificial tooling. Background Art
[0002] With the development of modern aviation technology, higher requirements have been put forward for the stealth performance of aircraft, and a large number of new high-performance materials have been introduced. Honeycomb absorbing materials have been widely used in the new generation of combat aircraft due to their many advantages such as high strength-to-weight ratio. In the military field, they are often used for aircraft structural parts. Most of the aircraft structural parts are special-shaped structures that require CNC machining. In CNC machining, when metal parts need secondary positioning processing, it is often necessary to mill pin holes or straight edges on the part blanks for alignment to ensure the accuracy of the parts during secondary clamping. However, honeycomb materials are extended or shortened in the non-stress direction during processing. If straight edges or positioning holes are milled on the honeycomb for secondary processing positioning, it is easy to cause inaccurate positioning due to the extension or shortening of the honeycomb, which will cause the processing to be scrapped.
[0003] At present, when honeycomb materials need secondary processing, they are generally processed by repeated positioning of the profile or multiple edges. However, this method has too many human factors and is very demanding on the operating ability of on-site personnel. In addition, the positioning will be misaligned after the honeycomb is extended or shortened, which seriously affects the size of the parts and thus affects the assembly. Therefore, finding a new positioning process combined with CNC machining technology for secondary positioning processing to increase the accuracy of repeated positioning is the most urgent need at present.
