Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a method for manufacturing and processing irregularly shaped curved parts, belonging to the field of technical technology for manufacturing and processing irregularly shaped curved parts. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of technology, intelligentization and informatization have entered a stage of rapid development, and the external shapes of parts are becoming increasingly complex. The types of curved, spherical, and irregularly shaped parts are also increasing, which places strict requirements on the processing methods. In particular, irregularly shaped parts with curved surfaces are quite common in the mechanical processing industry. For such parts, the commonly used production and processing method in the existing technology is to use a machining center for milling. For example, CN105290712A discloses a processing method for curved surface parts, and CN105382313A discloses a CNC milling method for thin-walled curved irregularly shaped parts.
[0003] When using a machining center to mill curved and irregularly shaped parts, the CNC toolpath programming is relatively complex due to the use of ball end mills. The depth of cut and step distance settings are relatively small, resulting in a long machining time and low machining efficiency. Furthermore, during the machining of curved surfaces, vibration and trembling are prone to occur, which leads to poor surface finish on the inner and outer surfaces of the machined parts, affecting the production quality of the parts. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing and processing curved irregular parts that can improve processing efficiency and processing quality.

[0017] Furthermore, the milling double-sided fixture includes a milling double-sided main body, one end of which is provided with a milling double-sided clamping part, and the other end of which is provided with a workpiece positioning groove.

[0029] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0030] Example 1:
[0031] Taking the production and processing of tail fin drag strips as an example, the structure of tail fin drag strips is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the original machining method is as follows: a five-axis machining center is used to mill the blank part throughout the entire process. The process route is milling the shape → fixing the total height. Ball end mills are used for machining. This requires layer milling, small depth of cut and step distance, low efficiency, long machining time, and the ball end mill is unstable when machining curved surfaces, resulting in chatter and poor surface finish. The machining time is about 120 minutes per piece.
[0032] This solution uses a turning-instead-of-milling machining method. The optimized process route is: finish turning one end → finish turning the other end → dividing → milling and chamfering → milling the big end and drilling.
[0033] The method for manufacturing and processing irregularly shaped curved parts according to the present invention includes the following steps:
[0034] S1. First, use 3D software to cut the part to be processed along the longitudinal center line and project the curve. Then rotate the projected curve one revolution to create a 3D schematic diagram of the part in revolution.
[0035] S2, Obtain the part blank based on the 3D schematic diagram of the part of revolution. The structure of the part blank of revolution is as follows: Figure 2 As shown;
[0036] S3. Since the workpiece blank is cylindrical, both ends can be directly clamped on the chuck of a precision CNC lathe, and the two end faces, inner curved surface and outer curved surface of the workpiece blank can be machined by the precision CNC lathe.
[0037] S4, using segmented tooling to position and clamp the rotating blank of the part, such as Figures 3 to 5As shown, the dividing fixture includes a dividing body 1 and a dividing top plate 5.

The dividing top plate 5 is provided with an alignment positioning hole 8 that corresponds to and matches the positioning pin 7. Since the positioning pin 7 is eccentrically set, the alignment of the saw blade routing grooves 3 can be completed by inserting the positioning pin 7 into the alignment positioning hole 8. The outer arc surface of the main body 1 fits in shape with the inner arc surface of the part rotating blank. The end face groove 9 and the inner positioning hole 10 are used to position and clamp the part rotating blank. The positioning component is used to ensure that the position of the dividing main body 1 and the saw blade routing groove 3 on the dividing top plate 5 are consistent each time they are clamped. The dividing clamping part 2 is used for the chuck clamping of the dividing equipment. The center positioning hole 6 is used for the top support of the dividing equipment, thereby completing the clamping of the dividing fixture. Then the saw blade of the dividing equipment can perform the dividing operation on the part rotating blank through the saw blade routing groove 3, thereby dividing the part rotating blank into several independent part blanks 4.
[0038] S5, firstly, the blank part 4 is clamped using a double-sided milling fixture, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the milling double-sided fixture includes a milling double-sided body 11. One end of the milling double-sided body 11 is provided with a milling double-sided clamping part 12, and the other end of the milling double-sided body 11 is provided with a workpiece positioning groove. Both sides of the workpiece positioning groove are provided with milling cutter routing grooves 13. A first conforming pressure block 14 and a second conforming pressure block 15 are detachably connected to the milling double-sided body 11. The workpiece positioning groove conforms to the two end faces and outer curved surfaces of the workpiece 4. The bottom surface of the first conforming pressure block 14 conforms to the inner curved surface of the large end of the workpiece 4. The bottom surface of the second conforming pressure block 15 conforms to the inner curved surface of the workpiece 4. The milling double-sided clamping part 12 is used to clamp on the chuck of the milling equipment. Then, the milling cutter of the milling equipment can perform double-sided milling and chamfering operations on the workpiece 4 through the milling cutter routing grooves 13. Then, the workpiece 4 is removed from the milling double-sided fixture and clamped in the milling large end fixture, as shown. Figure 7As shown, the milling head fixture includes a milling head body 16, a milling head clamping part 17 and a milling head positioning groove 18 on the milling head body 16, and a corresponding pressure plate 20 on the milling head positioning groove 18. Multiple pressure blocks 19 corresponding to the corresponding pressure plates 20 are detachably connected to the milling head body 16. The bottom surface of the milling head positioning groove 18 conforms to the outer curved surface of the workpiece blank 4, and the two sides and the tip surface of the workpiece blank 4 are all in contact with the milling head positioning groove 18. The bottom surface of the corresponding pressure plate 20 conforms to the inner curved surface of the workpiece blank 4. The milling head clamping part 17 is used to clamp on the chuck of the milling equipment, and then the milling equipment can perform milling head and drilling operations on the workpiece blank 4, thereby completing the entire processing process.
[0039] The machining method of replacing milling with turning in this invention reduces the original processing time of about 120 minutes per piece to about 30 minutes, which greatly improves the processing efficiency.
