Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of shaft processing, and in particular to a high-precision camshaft and a processing technology. Background Art
[0002] The camshaft is a component in a piston engine. Its main function is to control the opening and closing of the valve. Its working principle is to push the valve push rod up and down through continuous rotation, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the valve. In this process, the cam on the camshaft cooperates with the notch on the valve stem to achieve precise control of the opening and closing of the valve. Therefore, there will be multiple cams with different cross-sectional shapes on the camshaft according to functional requirements.
[0003] In order to realize the overall processing of the camshaft, the prior art discloses a processing method of a cam grinder template and a processing method of the camshaft, comprising the steps of: using an error correction compensation value to correct a first cam profile of a template of a CNC external cylindrical grinder to obtain a second cam profile, wherein the error correction compensation value is the accumulated error of a guide wheel cradle and a counter-grinding wheel of the CNC external cylindrical grinder; using a CNC cam grinder to process the second cam profile on the template; running the actual relationship between the guide wheel cradle and the counter-grinding wheel in UG software to obtain the error correction compensation value.
[0004] With regard to the above-mentioned related technologies, when processing the camshaft, since the cross-sectional shape of the cam will change according to the function of the camshaft, the mold used to process the previous batch of camshafts is no longer suitable for the next batch of camshafts. It is necessary to repeatedly manufacture new shape-matching molds to control the movement trajectory of the turning tool, which is costly. In addition, new molds need to be constantly replaced during the camshaft processing process, which will also affect the processing efficiency of the camshaft. Summary of the invention
