Abstract Aiming at the problem of poor surface quality of multi-stage inner conical hole parts in electrochemical machining, a hydraulic self driving rotating magnetic field assisted electrochemical machining method is proposed, a hydraulic self driving rotating flow field model is established and simulated, and the structure of cathode tail blades is optimized. The simulation results show that when the number of cathode blades is 3 and the thickness of blades is 0.8mm, When the electrolyte flow rate is not less than 5m/s, the impeller at the tail of the cathode mandrel can rotate stably. A hydraulic self driving rotating magnetic field assisted electrochemical machining cathode is designed. When the machining voltage is 10V, the electrolyte temperature is 30 ℃, the electrolyte pressure is 1.6Mpa, the cathode feed speed is 5mm / min, and the electrolyte is 5%NaCl+16%NaNO3+4%NaClO3 composite electrolyte, the comparative experimental study of multi-stage inner conical hole electrochemical machining process with and without rotating magnetic field is carried out, The results show that the surface roughness of the workpiece without magnetic field is Ra0.847μm under the same processing parameters . With the addition of rotating magnetic field, the surface roughness of the workpiece is Ra0.437μm. The surface quality was improved by 48.41%.

In this paper, we propose a new ultra-high-precision magnetic abrasive finishing method for wire material which is considered to be difficult with the existing finishing process. The processing method uses a rotating magnetic field system with unbonded magnetic abrasive type. It is believed that this process can efficiently perform the ultra-high-precision finishing for producing a smooth surface finish and removing a diameter of wire material. For such a processing improvement, the following parameters are considered; rotational speed of rotating magnetic field, vibration frequency of wire material, and unbonded magnetic abrasive grain size. In order to evaluate the performance of the new finishing process for the wire material, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) 1085 steel wire was used as the wire workpiece. The experimental results showed that the original surface roughness of AISI 1085 steel wire was enhanced from 0.25 µm to 0.02 µm for 60 s at 800 rpm of rotational speed. Also, the performance of the removed diameter was excellent. As the result, a new ultra-high-precision magnetic abrasive finishing using a rotating magnetic field with unbonded magnetic abrasive type could be successfully adopted for improving the surface roughness and removing the diameter of AISI 1085 steel wire material.

The melt flow has a significant effect on the structure developing during the unidirectional solidification of alloys. This phenomenon can be experienced during the solidification of melts stirred by the rotating magnetic field (RMF)-type magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) facility as well. As it would be very difficult to measure the intensity of melt flow (e.g. its revolution number, angular velocity) during solidification, it seems to be reasonable to perform the so-called "scale model" experiments applied usually in the hydrodynamics. Using the results of these measurements, conclusions can be drawn concerning the flows during solidification by means of the similarity law of hydrodynamics. The revolution number of Ga-In alloy melt placed in the rotating magnetic field can be measured by the equipment developed for performing the "scale model" experiments. The measurements were performed in crucibles with different surface roughness using melt-cylinders with different diameters located in rotating magnetic field having different frequencies and magnetic induction.

Abstract In order to solve the problems of uneven gap distribution and flow pattern in complex parts with multi-stage internal cone holes in electrochemical machining, a method of computer simulation assisted cathode design was proposed. The electric field and flow field models of machining gaps were established respectively, and the simulation of different cathode profiles was carried out. When the cathode cone angle is 2°, the electric field distribution between the cathode and the workpiece is reasonable, and the electrolyte distribution in the machining gap is uniform. With the conditions of processing voltage 10 V, electrolyte inlet pressure 1.5 MPa, electrolyte temperature 28 ℃ and cathode feed speed 5mm/min, the ECM processing of multi-stage internal cone hole was carried out by using the optimized cathode. The results show that the surface of the workpiece has no flow pattern, the dimensional forming accuracy is better than 0.1mm, and the surface roughness reaches Ra0.697µm. Research shows that the optimization of cathode structure with computer simulation can shorten the cathode development cycle and reduce the cost of cathode design effectively in ECM, which provides an efficient and feasible method for the optimization of complex cathode structure.

In the paper, a new method of using rotating magnetic field generated by a stator of alternative electromotor to polish the inner surface of tube-type workpieces is proposed; a finishing device using the stator construction and inverter is designed; the finishing mechanism is analyzed and experiments are carried out. Experimental investigations show that filling amount of magnetic abrasive influences the surface roughness of workpiece directly and have an optimal value. The higher magnetic conductivity is, and the finer finishing effect is. The attraction force of magnetic particles depends on intensity of magnetic induction directly and has the optimal value. The higher the rotation speed is, and the lower the value of surface roughness. Under the optimal experimental condition, the new method can reduce the value of surface roughness more than 2 grades. Therefore, this technique has prospective application future.
