In this study, we investigated ultra-precision cutting technology of aluminum alloys for polygon mirrors made of Al-Mg Alloys. It is necessary to improve the geometric surface roughness achieved in the mirror cutting of Al-Mg alloys and remove tear-out marks and scratch marks that occur during the cutting process. Therefore, we investigated the cutting edge shape using 2 types of straight diamond tools and 2 types of round tools to decrease the surface defects in the ultra-precision cutting of Al-Mg alloys. As a result, a double-facet tool can achieved a good machined surface roughness and reduce the cutting force and the scratch marks compared with other tools.

This paper describes the cutting characteristics of aluminum alloys in dry end milling experimentally. The tested materials are A1050, A2017, A2024, A5025 and A7075. The cutter is a flat end mill of Co-cemented High Speed Steel with the diameter of 20 mm. Through the experimental results of side milling, the following three aspects have been found out. Firstly, as to the machining error, A1050 showed smaller machining error than 15 μm in the cutting speed rage from 62.8 m/min to 251.3 m/min. Other Aluminum alloys showed greater values. Secondly, as to the cutting force, those of aluminum alloys except A2017 were generally proportional to their material hardness. The cutting forces of A1050 and A5052 were constant over the whole range of cutting speed. Thirdly, as to the machined surface roughness, A7075 showed the smallest surface roughness among the all materials with its arithmetical mean roughness Ra under 0. 2 µm and with its maximum height of profile Rz under 1 μm. The machined surface roughness of A2017 varied widely. Through the visual inspection of machined surface, A2017 and A2024 showed picked surface as generated by a built-up edge.

The electrolytic in-process dressing (ELID) grinding technology was adopted for ultra-precision grinding experiments of GCr15 bearing steel. The experiments show that: grinding depth, electrolysis gap and wheel peripheral velocity are the main factors to affect the surface quality. With the electrolysis gap of 0.5mm, the grinding depth of 0.1μm, and the wheel peripheral velocity of 18m/s, the grinding effect can achieve optimal and the machined surface roughness can obtain Ra0.006μm.

Abstract Contour bevel gears have the advantages of high coincidence, low noise and large bearing capacity, which are widely used in automobile manufacturing, shipbuilding and construction machinery. However, the quality of the tooth surface has a significant impact on the transmission accuracy of the gear, so it is of great significance to optimize the surface quality of the contour bevel gear. This paper firstly analyzes the formation process of machined surface roughness of contour bevel gears on the basis of generating machining method, and dry milling experiments of contour bevel gears are conducted to analyze the effects of cutting speed and feed rate on the machined surface roughness and surface topography of the workpiece. Then, the surface defects on the machined surface of the workpiece are studied by SEM, and the causes of the surface defects are analyzed by EDS. After that, XRD is used to compare the microscopic grains of the machined surface and the substrate material for diffraction peak analysis, and the effect of cutting parameters on the microhardness of the workpiece machined surface is investigated by work hardening experiment. The research results are of great significant for improving the machining accuracy of contour bevel gears, reducing friction losses and improving transmission efficiency.

Surface roughness is an important evaluation index of the machined surface quality. The ultrasonic turning mechanism was described in detail and the mechanism reducing surface roughness in ultrasonic vibration turning was obtained in this paper. Meanwhile, ultrasonic turning experiments were carried out to verify the theoretical analysis. Theoretical and experimental research results show that machined surface roughness of quenched steel in ultrasonic turning is very close to geometric surface roughness, resulting in smaller surface roughness than that in ordinary turning.

In this work, cutting experiments were carried out on titanium alloy Ti6Al4V by using polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tools to investigate the effects of the tool geometries and cutting parameters on machined surface roughness. Experimental results show machined surface roughness decreases with increases in the flank angle, tool nose radius and cutting speed within a limited range respectively, and begins to increase as the factors reaches to certain values respectively. And machined surface roughness decreases with increases in feed rate and cutting depth respectively.
