With the development of (electrical discharge machining) EDM technology, composite tools with special features gradually replace the traditional single-material tools and have become widely used in specific processing conditions. In order to predict the wear of composite tool effectively, in this paper, a material removal model of single-pulse EDM with composite tools was established by using the finite element method. The surface temperature distribution of the composite tool was obtained by taking the copper-die steel tool as the analysis object. And the shape of discharge crater as well as the removal volume was obtained by the element birth and death method. The influences of discharge parameters and tool materials on the removal volume were analyzed respectively. The EDM experiments were carried out by using copper-die steel as the composite tool to verify the simulation results. It shows that the errors between actual machining results and the simulation results are less than 10%, which proves the accuracy of the simulation model.

The shape change law of a multimaterial electrode in EDM was studied, and a cosimulation between ANSYS and MATLAB of electrode shape change of the multimaterial electrode and workpiece was established. Element birth and death in ANSYS was used to obtain the removal volume in a single-pulse discharge, and the electrode feed strategy, material removal, and renewal strategy are considered to establish the shape simulation strategy. Then, a program based on MATLAB software was compiled to simulate the machining process and predict the shape change of the multimaterial electrode of different combinations. The experiments of different multimaterial electrodes were carried out with the die steel as the workpiece. The simulation results were compared with the experimental results to verify the effectiveness of the simulation model.

According to the sharp rheological characteristics of magnetorheological fluid in the magnetic field, the principle and mechanism of magnetorheological finishing is analyzed. Based on the Preston equation, the Reynolds equation and its boundary conditions, the two-dimensional material removal model is built and simulated. Furthermore, a series of MRF experiments are carried out, and the influence of the immersed depth and material kinds on material removal rate are clarified respectively. The experimental results are compared with the modeling results of material removal rate to confirm the mechanistic model validity.

A new plate polishing technique with an instantaneous tiny-grinding wheel cluster based on the magnetorheological (MR) effect is presented in this paper, and some experiments were conducted to prove its effectiveness and applicability. Under certain experimental condition, the material removal rate was improved by a factor of 20.84% as compared with the conventional polishing methods with dissociative abrasive particles, while the surface roughness of the workpiece was not obviously increased. Furthermore, the composite of the MR fluid was optimized to obtain the best polishing performance. On the basis of the experimental results, the material removal model of the new plate polishing technique was presented.

Abstract Contact calculation is of great importance in predicting the material removal (MR) of flexible grinding process (FGP). The contact is mostly considered approximately constant in the existing MR models, while the situations that contact varies a lot after FGP are ignored. Therefore, a novel model is proposed in this paper to take those situations into consideration. Firstly, the nonconstant-contact situation is introduced. Then an equivalent method is developed to convert the nonconstant-contact grinding process into the accumulation of several quasi-constant-contact grinding processes. Based on the equivalent method, a MR model is established, and the procedure to obtain the model parameters by the finite element analysis (FEA) is introduced. In the end, the equivalent method and the MR model are tested by a series experiments of different process parameters. Results show that the proposed MR model can predict the material removal effectively for the nonconstant-contact situations.

Abstract Atomized dielectric-based electrical discharge machining (EDM) is an emerging technology in which the dielectric between the electrodes is supplied in the form of a thin film using a spray atomizer. This novel machining process uses significantly less quantities of dielectric compared to the conventional EDM while resulting in higher material removal rates and better debris flushing. This paper presents a model-based investigation of the atomized dielectric-based EDM to study the effect of the dielectric film flow on material removal. A melt-pool formation and material removal model is developed to predict the material removal in terms of crater shapes during a single EDM discharge. The atomization spray parameters are varied in order to produce different dielectric film velocities. The model accurately captures the asymmetry in crater shapes caused by the dielectric film flow and predicts the crater diameter and depth, however, the model overestimates the crater sizes observed in experiments.

In this paper, Yb:LuScO3 crystal was processed by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP), and the surface roughness of 0.18[Formula: see text]nm was obtained. The atomic step structures of these sesquioxide crystals are successfully characterized by AFM scanning probe technology. Through several CMP experiments, the basic material removal mechanism of a ytterbium-doped LuScO3 crystal during CMP is studied. Based on the findings, a material removal model is established. The results of this study provide ideas for the study of CMP, crystal growth and epitaxy.
