Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of parts processing, and in particular to a method for precise processing of porous parts in a milling area. Background Art
[0002] In aircraft production, aluminum alloy flat plate parts account for a relatively large proportion, and flat plate parts with through holes in the milling area are generally used in seats and are an important component of the aircraft.
[0003] For such parts, the reason why the domestic molding method of drilling first and then milling the hole area is not adopted is that milling will cause erosion, affecting the accuracy of the hole position and hole diameter. The calculation of the erosion area is complicated and has too many influencing factors, which is not conducive to the actual production and processing of parts.
[0004] Therefore, the traditional stamping method is used in the processing of such aircraft aluminum alloy sheet metal parts. The shortcomings of this method are that it relies too much on manually finding the center position of the through hole for positioning, that it depends to a large extent on the quality and life of the punching die, and that there is a large stamping deformation for porous parts. This method will cause the size and position of the punched through hole to deviate greatly from the original state, and the production cycle is long and the process form is relatively backward.
[0005] For hole making, accurate digital model and CNC milling can achieve the purpose of precise processing. However, the most critical problem of this method is how to effectively locate. Therefore, in order to solve such problems, it is necessary to study a precise processing method that can avoid more manual operations and efficiently and accurately form through holes in the milling area of flat parts.

[0014] Step six, perform a second CNC milling process: the milling area on the semi-finished part is CNC milled and formed, and the finished part is obtained after the processing is completed.
[0015] Furthermore, the appearance, structure and size of the part template are basically the same as those of the porous flat plate-type parts, and the only difference is that at least two positioning ears are provided on the side of the part template, and positioning holes are processed on the ears.
[0016] Furthermore, the shape and size of the chemical milling template are basically the same as those of the part template, and the only difference is that there are no other features on the surface of the chemical milling template except the chemical milling area, ears and positioning holes.
[0017] Furthermore, the chemical milling allowance is at least 50 mm, and the CNC milling allowance is at least 40 mm.
[0018] Furthermore, the area where all features of the corresponding part template are located on the semi-finished part is determined as the milling processing area.
[0019] Furthermore, the milling area includes the milling surface on the part and the area where all features are located.
[0020] Furthermore, the features include through holes and windows inside the part template and the outer contour of the part template.

[0022] The present invention provides a method for the precise processing and forming of porous aircraft aluminum alloy sheet metal parts in the milling area. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. Basically realize the whole process of mechanical automation and precise processing and manufacturing, which greatly avoids the influence of human factors on the through holes in the milling area.

[0039] Step 4, determining the milling area 5 on the semi-finished part based on the part template 2; wherein the area on the semi-finished part corresponding to all the features of the part template 2 is determined as the milling area 5, and the milling area 5 should be a continuous area, including the milling surface 4 on the part and the area where all the features are located; wherein the features include the through holes and windows inside the part template 2 and the outer contour of the part template 2;
[0040] Step 5, first CNC milling: CNC milling out positioning holes corresponding to the positioning holes on the part template 2 and the outer contour of the part template 2 on the machine bed plate 6; Figure 3 As shown;
