Research Part Surface Position Influence on Metal Removal and Steady-State Roughness During Vibro-Abrasive Processing
Abstract The paper is devoted to the study of part surface position and its influence on metal removal and steady-state rougness during vibro-abrasive processing. The article raises the differences between vibro-abrasive processing of external and internal part surfaces. Theoretical dependencies analysis for determination on part material removal and surface steady-state roughness is carried out. It is known that available theoretical dependencies do not take into account part surface position for material removal and the steady-state roughness calculation. Experimental researches to determine internal surface material removal with external surface isolation were carried out. The influence of part surface position on the steady-state roughness is investigated. Based on obtained experimental results, the dependence graphs of material removal and roughness on the processing time are constructed. The comparative analysis of the part surface position influence on material removal and the steady-state roughness during vibro-abrasive processing is carried out. The results showed that material removal volume from the internal surface more than from the external for short part length, however material removal volume from the external surfaces grows significantly in case of part length increasing, while from the internal surfaces is not significant. It is established that the internal surface steady-state roughness is ∼1.55 times higher than external surface steady-state roughness after processing in triangular prism 15×15, grit 16.
