Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to electrolytic mechanical compound machining, in particular to a high-efficiency precise electrolytic-turning compound machining device and method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Titanium alloy has become an important material for manned cabin of deep-sea submersible due to its high strength, low density and good corrosion resistance. In recent years, with the increase of submersible diving depth requirement, in order to protect the safety of internal scientific researchers and electronic equipment, titanium alloy of 1000, 1200 MPa level has been developed, which further improves the operation range of submersible, but also puts forward higher requirements for processing technology. Titanium alloy is a typical difficult-to-cut material. When traditional turning machining with large material allowance is performed on the titanium alloy, large cutting force and high cutting heat are generated, which easily leads to serious tool wear, increases processing cost and prolongs processing cycle. For difficult-to-cut materials such as titanium alloy, electro-discharge machining and chemical milling machining are two effective special machining methods, but both methods have certain deficiencies. Electro-discharge machining forms recast layer on the workpiece surface, which affects the machining quality. The corrosive solution used in chemical milling machining can damage the environment.

[0003] Electrochemical machining is a special machining technology that removes material by anodic dissolution of the workpiece surface. Since the tool electrode does not contact the workpiece surface, there is no cutting force and tool wear, the machining efficiency is high, the machining surface is free of recast layer and micro-cracks, and the surface quality is good. In addition, the electrolyte is a neutral salt solution, which is friendly to the environment. Therefore, electrochemical machining technology is an important technology for efficient removal and forming of difficult-to-machine materials such as titanium alloy. In the prior art, a numerical control electrochemical mechanical compound machining tool is proposed in Chinese patent application No. 200810023230.4. By controlling the relative movement of the compound cathode and the workpiece anode, complex cavities and surfaces of the workpiece can be machined, and drilling, milling, cutting, grinding and polishing processes can be realized. However, the electrochemical machining precision is insufficient. For example, Chinese patent application No. 201320233625.3 proposes an electrochemical machining tool for slender shafts. By controlling the tool cathode movement trajectory, electrochemical machining of slender shafts can be realized. However, the cathode and the working groove connection part have not been protected, which easily leads to the flow of electrolyte out of the machining area along the tool rod, causing corrosion of the machining equipment.

[0004] At present, the existing machine tool structures cannot realize electrochemical-turning compound machining function. There is no effective report on the tool electrode structure for electrochemical-turning compound machining, the working area sealing, the large current electricity leading mechanism and the electrochemical-turning compound machining method, which limits the application of electrochemical-turning compound machining technology to difficult-to-cut material rotary parts.

[0042] Embodiment 2

[0043] The high-efficiency and high-precision electrolytic-turning composite machining method in this embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0044] Step one, the relative position between the composite turning tool electrode 300 and the workpiece 700 is adjusted by controlling the Z-direction supporting arm 115 to move along the Z-direction through the Z-direction servo motor 112, so that the tip of the diamond blade 302 is flush with the axis of the workpiece 700;

[0045] Step two, according to the required machining allowance T of the workpiece 700, each machining allowance t is evenly distributed;

[0046] Step 3: Perform a rough machining operation. The Y-axis motion platform 103 is moved along the Y-axis by the Y-axis servo motor 105.
