The extension of technical capabilities of machine centres for complete machining of components can improve their performance. In the field of sheet metal machining, the objective beside the classic milling operation was a generation of functional surfaces by face brushing. The experimental studies have probed the influence of tools and technological parameters on the surface quality. In addition to an analysis of the relevant roughness parameters the formation of the surface topography was analysed by several measurement methods. By the application of force measurement, the results of the surface quality can be interpreted additionally. It could be shown that the feed rate in contrast to the cutting speed has the main influence on the surface roughness. A peculiarity is given by the parameter-based width of cut that should be known for reliable process control. The acquired data can be applied in the form of process characteristic fields for further processing with simulation and modelling methods.

In the fields of military and civil uses, some special passages exist in many major parts, such as non-linear tubes. The overall performance is usually decided by the surface quality. Abrasive flow machining (AFM) technology can effectively improve the surface quality of the parts. In order to discuss the mechanism and technology of abrasive flow machining nonlinear tube, the nozzle is picked up as the researching object, and the self-designed polishing liquid is employed to make research on the key technological parameters of abrasive flow machining linear tube. Technological parameters’ impact on surface quality of the parts through the nozzle surface topography and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) map is explored. It is experimentally confirmed that abrasive flow machining can significantly improve surface quality of nonlinear runner, and experimental results can provide technical reference to optimizing study of abrasive flow machining theory.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate the quality of printed surfaces and manufacturing tolerances by comparing the cylindrical cavities machined in parts obtained by fused deposition modeling (FDM) with the holes manufactured during the printing process itself. The comparison focuses on the results of roughness and tolerances, intending to obtain practical references when making assemblies. Design/methodology/approach The experimental approach focuses on the comparison of the results of roughness and tolerances of two manufacturing strategies: geometric volumes with a through-hole and the through-hole machined in volumes that were initially printed without the hole. Throughout the study, both alternates are explained to make appropriate recommendations. Findings The study shows the best combinations of technological parameters, both machining and three-dimensional printing, which have been decisive for obtaining successful results. These conclusive results allow enunciating recommendations for use in the industrial environment. Originality/value This paper fulfills an identified need to study the dimensional accuracy of the geometries obtained by additive manufacturing, as no experimental evidence has been found of studies that directly address the problem of the FDM-printed part with geometric and dimensional tolerances and desirable surface quality for assembly.

CoCrMo alloys, which are well-known Co-based biomedical alloys, have many different types of surface integrity problems reported in literature. Residual stresses, white layer formation and work hardening layers are some those, matters which occur as a microstructural alteration during machining. Therefore, such problems should be solved and surface quality of end products should be improved. In this paper, the surface quality of CoCrMo alloy used in tibial component of the knee prosthesis produced by means of turning was investigated. An improvement was suggested and discussed for the improvement in their machinability with the developed turning-grinding method. Finite element analyses were also carried out to calculate temperature and thermal stresses distribution between the tool and the tibial component. The results showed that many parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, tool geometry, and tool wear affect the surface quality of workpieces of CoCrMo alloy. In the turning-grinding method, the machining time is reduced by about six times compared to machining only method. The EDX analysis performed on the surface after machining showed that metal diffusion occurred from tool to the tibial component.

Analysis of surface quality of machined workpiece is an important issue in machining of materials. For this purpose, scientists analyze how the texture of machined surface changes due to different conditions. Machine vibration is one of the factors that highly affects the surface quality of machined surface. In this research, we analyze the relation between machine vibration and surface quality of machined workpiece. For this purpose, we employ fractal theory and analyze how the complex structure of machined surface changes with the complex structure of machine vibration signal in case of variations of machining parameters, namely, depth of cut, feed rate and spindle speed, in milling operation. Based on the results, variations of surface quality of machined workpiece are related with the variations of complexity of machine vibration signal. The method of analysis employed in this research can be applied to other machining operations in order to find the relation between machine vibration and surface quality of machined workpiece.

Abstract This article deals with the technology and principles of the laser cutting of ductile cast iron. The properties of the CO2 laser beam, input parameters of the laser cutting, assist gases, the interaction of cut material and the stability of cutting process are described. The commonly used material (nodular cast iron - share of about 25% of all castings on the market) and the method of the laser cutting of that material, including the technological parameters that influence the cutting edge, are characterized. Next, the application and use of this method in mechanical engineering practice is described, focusing on fixing and renovation of mechanical components such as removing the inflow gate from castings with the desired quality of the cut, without the further using of the chip machining technology. Experimental samples from the nodular cast iron were created by using different technological parameters of laser cutting. The heat affected zone (HAZ), its width, microstructure and roughness parameter Pt was monitored on the experimental samples (of thickness t = 13 mm). The technological parameters that were varied during the experiments included the type of assist gases (N2 and O2), to be more specific the ratio of gases, and the cutting speed, which ranged from 1.6 m/min to 0.32 m/min. Both parameters were changed until the desired properties were achieved.

Paddle mixers with horizontal shafts are common at building materials enterprises for the preparation of concretes, mortars, dry mortars. A new design of a horizontal paddle mixer with rod elements located in front of the working surfaces of the blades, changing the trajectories of material particles, increasing their mobility, which leads to an increase in the degree of homogeneity of the mixed material, is considered. The aim of the study was to assess the influence of rod elements on the quality of preparation of a cement-sand mixture, to establish patterns of influence on it by the design and technological parameters of a two-shaft paddle mixer and to determine the areas of their rational values. The following tasks have been solved. A bench installation of a two-shaft horizontal paddle mixer with rod elements has been developed, on which experimental studies have been carried out on the preparation of dry cement-sand mixtures. For the criterion characterizing the quality of the mixture, the ultimate compressive strength of the prism specimens made from it is adopted. Regression equations are obtained that adequately describe the compressive strength of prism samples from the design and technological parameters of the mixer: the angle of the blades, the distance from the working surfaces of the blades to the rod elements, the rotational speed of the blade shafts, and their analysis is performed. The analysis of the change in the ultimate compressive strength of the prism specimens from the parameters under study is carried out, the rational ranges of their values are determined. It was found that a mixer with rod elements allows to obtain a dry cement-sand mixture, products from which have a higher compressive strength. During the work, the method of mathematical planning of experiments was used. As a result of the study, an assessment of the influence of rod elements on the quality of preparation of a cement-sand mixture was carried out, the regularities of the influence on it of the design and technological parameters of a two-shaft paddle mixer and the area of their rational values were established.
