Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of wire processing, and particularly relates to a high-temperature wire end processing method and a processing tool. BACKGROUND

[0002] The first and second stage separation of a certain type of spacecraft rocket engine adopts thermal separation, the second stage engine adopts a large nozzle state, the second stage engine works alone for a long time, and the second stage bottom is subjected to multiple thermal environments such as thermal scouring at the time of separation, high-temperature radiation of the main engine and the engine nozzle wall for a long time, and high-altitude plume heating during the flight of the rocket, resulting in a poor thermal environment of the second stage bottom of the rocket engine. In the flight test, abnormal phenomena such as loss of telemetry data caused by inadequate heat protection measures have occurred.

[0003] Heat protection is an important part of rocket engine development. The cables of a certain type of carrier rocket engine originally use FY3 and AF250 series wires. The maximum working temperature of the wires in this series is lower than 250 DEG C. In the face of the high-temperature environment at the bottom of the rocket engine, in order to ensure the reliability of the cable, a large number of heat protection coating measures are taken for the cable. At present, the implementation workload of the heat protection measures for the cable is large, and the process stability is poor during the implementation process. The quality of the cable after the heat protection coating is completed is poor. In order to improve the heat protection performance of the cable of the carrier type rocket and reduce the risk that may be caused by inadequate heat protection measures, high-temperature SP2D series wires are used for the cable on the rocket, and the high temperature is above 800 DEG C, so as to reduce the heat protection coating layer outside the cable and strengthen the ability of the cable to resist extreme high temperature.

[0004] In the process of manufacturing high-temperature cables, the wire end of the high-temperature wire needs to be processed. The existing temperature control type thermal stripper has a maximum temperature of 400 DEG C, and the wire is continuously heated, which causes damage to the performance of the conductor. When the high-temperature wire end is processed by using a precision manual wire stripper, the insulating layer of the wire is easily damaged, and the wire core is easily scratched, notched, cut, and broken.
