[0002] Forgings and castings have the advantages of high strength, high hardness, high toughness, high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance, etc. At the same time, they can also reduce material waste and processing time, and are widely used in key load-bearing parts of aerospace and automobiles. With the widespread application of integrated design principles in the design of new generation products, the structure and shape of die forging blanks are becoming more and more complex, which brings great difficulties to the precise preparation of the processing benchmark of die forging blanks.
[0003] At present, the main processing method for special-shaped die forging blanks is to first mark the machining positioning holes or reference surfaces on the blanks by benchwork; then use general milling to machine the positioning holes or reference surfaces according to the position of the markings; finally, the subsequent parts can be processed in the CNC machining center. The current machining reference preparation process for die forging blanks has the following problems:
[0004] 1. Due to the large tolerance of the blank of the special-shaped die forging, the influence of the draft bevel, underpressure and misalignment, the straightening and alignment during the marking process of the fitter is difficult, the workload of the allowance distribution calculation is large and prone to errors, which directly leads to insufficient local allowance of the parts, marking requires the assistance of multiple people and is time-consuming, and has very high skill requirements and high labor intensity.
[0005] 2. Due to the limitation of the blank's special shape, it is difficult to clamp the parts during the general milling process, and the removal amount of each reference surface needs to be adjusted manually to avoid reference deviation.
[0006] 3. Both bench marking and general milling require manual skills, long process preparation time, long turnover cycle, high management cost, and low production organization efficiency, which have become the bottleneck process of automated batch production. Summary of the invention
