This invention belongs to the field of wind
turbine bearing manufacturing, specifically relating to a process method for the friction surface of a
yaw gear ring. The process method includes: semi-finish turning: using a semi-finish turning tool to semi-finish turn the friction surface of the
yaw gear ring, removing most of the excess material; finish turning: using a finish turning tool to finish turn the friction surface of the
yaw gear ring, forming evenly spaced oil reservoirs on the friction surface surface; and
roller burnishing: using a dedicated
roller burnishing tool to roller burnish the friction surface of the yaw gear ring, controlling the feed rate and workpiece speed via the
machine tool to form a stable stress layer on the friction surface surface, while ensuring the
surface roughness and profile length support ratio. This invention proposes a process method for the friction surface of a yaw gear ring. Using the above
processing method ensures the stability of the yaw gear ring friction surface quality during
mass production, guarantees the load-
bearing capacity of the yaw gear ring, avoids abnormal vibration and
noise during the operation of the
yaw system, and improves the service life of the yaw gear ring.
