[0022] Preferably, in step S5: the carbon nanotube cutting fluid is conductive. By fixing electrodes anode and cathode on the chamber and tool holder respectively, an electric field Ea of a certain intensity is generated between the chamber and the tool holder. According to the different electric field intensity characteristics of different cutting materials, the electric field intensity characteristics of different materials are measured by calibration.

[0031] The actual error refers to the specific actual value of undercut or overcut that occurs when the product is deformed during processing, even though it is processed according to the theoretical contour.
[0032] Preferably, step S8 includes: real-time compensation and correction of the point data at the spatial point optimized in step four, thereby correcting the actual tool path at that point, realizing real-time self-compensation and self-correction of the tool path, and ensuring that the final wall thickness reaches the theoretical wall thickness h(0) of the product; the self-compensation standard procedure in step S8 is: based on the real-time obtained machining error λ, automatically correcting the X, Y, and Z of the CNC machining program to ensure:

[0055] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments. These embodiments will help those skilled in the art to further understand the present invention, but do not limit the invention in any way. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several changes and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention. These all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0056] This invention aims to solve the technical problems in existing thin-walled chamber internal cavity machining processes, such as the inability to perform real-time online measurement, compensation, and measurement of product wall thickness, leading to uneven wall thickness, severe local deviations, and low production efficiency. This invention mainly builds upon traditional angle milling heads by installing a ball-end mill with internal cooling, a carbon nanotube wall thickness sensing system, a data processing system, and a point-feedback correction system. The wall thickness sensing system, containing carbon nanotube coolant, senses the thin-walled chamber wall thickness in real time. The data processing system calculates the error between the theoretical wall thickness at each point and the real-time sensed wall thickness data. The point-feedback and correction system corrects the pre-optimized tool trajectory point data in real time, enabling real-time and effective machining of all points within the thin-walled internal cavity. This provides technical support for obtaining qualified thin-walled chambers in a single machining operation.
[0057] This invention provides a high-efficiency, high-precision, and self-compensating machining method for the internal cavity of an irregularly shaped thin-walled chamber. The machining method includes the following steps: (1) preparing a metal billet with uniform physical properties; (2) properly installing and positioning the thin-walled chamber on the equipment; (3) setting the machining zero point and compensating for the tool length; (4) optimizing the tool path in advance; (5) automatically calibrating the wall thickness using a coolant containing carbon nanotubes; (6) calibrating the thin-walled metal wall thickness using a real-time ball end mill angle calibrated with a coolant containing carbon nanotubes; (7) calculating the error between the product's sensed wall thickness and the theoretical wall thickness; (8) automatically compensating and correcting the pre-planned tool path data; and (9) machining the inner surface of the thin-walled internal cavity. Here, "thin-walled" refers to a wall thickness of 1-3 mm.
[0058] The present invention will now be described in more detail.
[0059] The processing method includes the following steps:
[0060] Step 1: Select any type of metal chamber that requires internal cavity machining as the raw material, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the spatial locations within the inner cavity of the metal blank that need to be processed have the same physical properties, and the error in physical properties at each location does not exceed 5%, in order to reduce the compensation error caused by subsequent automatic compensation due to blank material issues.
[0061] Step 2: Using conventional installation and positioning methods such as tooling, gluing, and pressure plates, the thin-walled chamber is reliably installed on the equipment to prevent product vibration;
[0062] Step 3: Set up the product machining coordinate system according to the characteristics of the thin-walled cabin, install the ball end mill with internal cooling, and compensate the tool length to the CNC system of the equipment; the internal cavity machining tool is a ball end mill with internal cooling, and the internal cooling opening is located at the center of the ball end mill;
[0063] Step 4: Based on the characteristics of the thin-walled cabin cavity, plan the optimal tool path for machining the internal cavity to improve the continuity, efficiency, and stability of subsequent tool path data self-compensation and the cutting process. The optimized tool path has the characteristics of smooth tool path, fewer tool entry and exit times, and uniform cutting amount at all points. In the preferred example, there is only one entry and exit. When the ball end mill is machining the thin-walled cabin cavity, the cutting amount is uniform and consistent, ensuring consistent tool cutting state and stable cutting process.
[0064] Step 5: Based on the inner surface of the thin-walled compartment, such as... Figure 2 As shown, real-time measurement of thin-walled metal is achieved within a set area, for example, 25cm. 2 Within the area, a point is uniformly selected and the wall thickness of the carbon nanotubes is calibrated by measuring the product wall thickness using ultrasonic waves, ensuring that the wall thickness is consistent throughout.
[0065] In this process, when the cutting fluid containing carbon nanotubes is sprayed out from the cooling orifice inside the ball end mill, the conductivity of the carbon nanotubes allows for real-time measurement of the wall thickness based on the electromagnetic physical properties of metal wall thickness. This enables the cutting fluid to follow the flow of the cutting fluid and measure the product wall thickness in real time. Specifically, the carbon nanotube cutting fluid is conductive. By fixing electrodes (anode and cathode) on the chamber and tool holder respectively, an electric field Ea of a certain intensity is generated between the chamber and the tool holder. Based on the different electric field strength characteristics of different cutting materials, the electric field strength characteristics of different materials are measured through calibration. A fixed contact point a exists between the cutting area and the tool. Within a certain region S of this contact point, conductivity is achieved. Different wall thickness regions generate different potential energies, and the magnitude of these potential energies reflects the corresponding wall thickness changes within the chamber.
[0066] Step Six: During the actual machining of the thin-walled chamber cavity, the optimal tool path planned in Step Four is executed. Real-time wall thickness data at that point is collected in real time using a coolant containing carbon nanotubes. Different wall thicknesses and different cutting angles jointly determine the final potential difference of the product. By calibrating the influence of different angles on the potential difference, the real-time wall thickness data h of each machining position of the product can be obtained; for example... Figure 2 The image shows the machining state when the ball-end tool forms a 90° angle with the thin-walled inner cavity. Figure 3 This refers to machining conditions where the angle between the ball-end tool and the thin-walled inner cavity is greater than 90°. Figure 4 This refers to the machining state where the angle between the ball-end tool and the thin-walled inner cavity is <90°; corresponding to the implementation of step six in three different embodiments:
[0067] (1) When the angle between the ball end mill and the thin-walled inner cavity is 90°, the carbon nanotubes in the cutting fluid are uniformly distributed at the tip of the ball end mill, and the distribution area is S1 with an electric field strength of E(90). When the angle between the ball end mill and the thin-walled inner cavity is 90°, it is considered that the state at this time is the standard state, and the wall thickness measured at this time is h0.
[0068] (2) When the angle between the ball end mill and the thin-walled inner cavity is >90°, the distribution area of carbon nanotubes in the cutting fluid at the ball end is f*S1 / b, where f is the carbon nanotube material coefficient and b is the angle influence coefficient. At this time, the electric field strength E(θ)=E(90)*b / (f*S1); the wall thickness is h(δ)=h0*μ, where μ is the angle constant and is positively correlated with E(θ).
[0069] (3) When the angle between the ball end mill and the thin-walled inner cavity is <90°, the distribution area of carbon nanotubes in the cutting fluid at the ball end is f*S1 / a, where f is the carbon nanotube material coefficient and a is the angle influence coefficient. At this time, the electric field strength E(θ)=E(90)*a / (f*S1); the wall thickness is h(δ)=h0*μ, where μ is the angle constant and is positively correlated with E(θ).
[0070] During the actual machining process of the internal cavity of the cabin, the inclination angle θ of the tool can be known in real time at any machining moment, and the wall thickness of the product can be measured in real time based on the above different relationships.
[0071] Step 7, as follows Figure 2 As shown, the data processing system compares the wall thickness data of the spatial point collected in real time by the cooling liquid containing carbon nanotubes with the theoretical wall thickness data of the spatial point to obtain the actual error of the wall thickness data of the spatial point. Specifically, the method to obtain the actual error of the wall thickness data of the spatial point is: by measuring the actual processed wall thickness h(1) of the product in real time. The theoretical wall thickness of the product is determined according to the design specifications of the product, which is generally h(0). The actual processing error λ = h(1) - h(0).
[0072] The actual error refers to the specific actual value of undercut or overcut that occurs when the product is deformed during processing, even though it is processed according to the theoretical contour.
[0073] Step 8, as Figure 2 As shown, the point-of-care feedback correction system compensates and corrects the point data at the spatial point optimized in step four in real time, thereby correcting the actual tool path at that point. This achieves real-time self-compensation and self-correction of the tool path, ensuring that the final wall thickness reaches the theoretical wall thickness h(0) of the product. That is, based on the real-time machining error λ, the X, Y, and Z axes of the CNC machining program are automatically corrected to ensure:
[0074]
[0075] This enables real-time correction of the product's tool path, ensuring that the final wall thickness reaches the product's theoretical wall thickness h(0).
[0076] Finally, step nine involves traversing all machining toolpaths from step eight to achieve efficient, high-precision, and self-compensating machining of the thin-walled cabin cavity.
[0077] The present invention provides a self-compensating machining system for thin-walled cabin cavities, which is processed using the aforementioned self-compensating machining method for thin-walled cabin cavities.
[0078] The thin-walled cabin cavity provided by the present invention is obtained by processing using the aforementioned thin-walled cabin cavity self-compensation processing method, or by processing using the aforementioned thin-walled cabin cavity self-compensation processing system.
[0079] In summary, this invention provides a highly efficient, high-precision, and self-compensating machining method and system for thin-walled cabin cavities. It utilizes a coolant containing carbon nanotubes to automatically sense the metal thin-wall thickness through the internal cooling holes of a ball-end tool. A data processing system obtains the error between the actual and theoretical thin-walled cabin thickness in real time. Furthermore, through self-compensation and self-correction of pre-planned point data, it achieves accurate cutting based on actual positioning data in real time, thereby realizing highly efficient and high-precision machining of thin-walled cabin cavities.
